Asymmetry of Muscle Activation in Multiple Sclerosis

Brief summary Our research uses advanced neuroscience techniques to explore how the nervous system controls muscles in multiple sclerosis, with a particular focus on muscle weakness, fatigue and sensorimotor function. Ultimately, we aim to identify how specific neurophysiological changes due to MS influence movement and disability (e.g. mobility impairment) so that future treatments can be […]

The Multiple Sclerosis Australian Women’s Midlife Years (MS-AMY) Study

Researchers at Monash University are undertaking a study to understand the physical health and psychological, sexual and socioeconomic wellbeing of Australian midlife women living with MS.  The team wants to assess the contribution of common midlife circumstances, including the impact of menopause, on the quality of life of women living with MS. Surprisingly very little […]

The MS Family Study

Researchers from the Menzies Institute for Medical Research are seeking participants who come from families with multiple relatives affected by multiple sclerosis (MS). By analysing the genetic code of such families, the researchers want to better understand the inherited risk of MS.

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 […]
