Neural mechanisms of pain: Relapsing and Remitting Multiple Sclerosis Cohort
To investigate the molecular changes over the disease, we will meet the participants once every 3 months for 1h over a 2-year period. During each meeting, we will collect a venous blood sample (~5-10 minutes), ask you to fill out a survey (~10-20 minutes) and describe your response to a range of mechanical and thermal […]
ACT-Sydney Multiple Sclerosis (MS) cohort study
As part of the Our Health in Our Hands (OHIOH) project, researchers at the Australian National University and Sydney Adventist Hospital are working together to improve the clinical management and overall health and wellbeing of people living with multiple sclerosis (MS). In this study we are recruiting people with MS as well as people who […]
Relationships between Objective Sleep, Mental Health, Fatigue, and Sleep Disorders in MS
People with MS commonly report having poor sleep. Not much is known about how fatigue, sleeping issues like insomnia, and mental health issues like depression or anxiety are related to sleep in people with MS. These are common symptoms in MS but are poorly understood in research and clinical practice. This research represents an important […]
Testing Brain-Computer Interfaces for Individuals with Multiple Sclerosis
Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) use sensors to record brain activity and translate that activity into user-intended commands, which can be used to control a device such as your phone or computer. We are investigating how the brain controls movements and how multiple sclerosis may affect the brain’s activity when thinking about movement. This research could provide […]
Anxiety in Multiple Sclerosis
We are interested in identifying psychological factors that contribute to the development and maintenance of anxiety in individuals with MS. We are also interested in comparing these factors to those without an illness. Participants will be requested to fill out an online questionnaire at three different time points. Time 1: Fill out an ~30min questionnaire. […]

Is muscle fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis exacerbated with exercise?
We are looking to recruit adults aged 30-65 who have relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis. This project will determine components of MS fatigue and how they relate to standard tests. Participants will be asked to attend our laboratory on the Griffith University Gold Coast campus. Testing sessions will take about two and a half hours of your […]
People with mobility-impairing neurological conditions perspectives about graduated compression stockings to prevent deep vein thrombosis.
This research aims to acquire information on the users’ needs around graduated compression stockings (GCS) and identify the drawbacks of current available GCS designs. Their difficulties in wearing, daily use, and the factors affecting the selection of the compression stockings, will be identified in the online survey and focus group using Zoom. To identify the […]
Living Well with MS – Invisible Symptoms, Health Routines and Digital Technology
This study will explore the strategies people with MS use to manage living with unpredictable (and often invisible) symptoms. It will ask about your experience with healthcare and explore how technology may help you manage your MS. The first phase of the project is this 10-minute survey. At the end of the survey, you will […]
