Community involvement

Our community is at the heart of everything we do. Dedicated to actively engaging with individuals affected by MS, including people with MS, their family, healthcare professionals, and advocacy groups, we listen to your needs, values, and preferences to better understand your challenges and develop research-driven solutions to address them.

Stakeholder Reference Group

Our Stakeholder Reference Group, established in 2019, comprises people with MS, health professionals, and researchers. The group plays a crucial role in our research by providing expertise to inform and guide our projects. By representing the voice of people with MS and the broader MS community, the Stakeholder Reference Group ensures that the values and perspectives of people with MS remain at the heart of our research.
