Description:

The NMSS welcomes applications for studies related to multiple sclerosis that may serve to advance their mission of stopping MS progression, restoring function and improving quality of life, and preventing MS. The Society supports fundamental as well as applied studies, non-clinical or clinical in nature, including projects in patient management, care and rehabilitation.

The sponsoring institution may be in any country permitted by United States law; however, applicants are required to exhaust all local resources, including governmental granting agencies and other national multiple sclerosis societies, before coming to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society of the United States with a request to support research in a foreign country.

Application Details:

In order to submit a proposal for research support, investigators must first register with our apply online site (https://nmss.fluxx.io/) and complete a pre-application. Staff of the Research Programs team will review the pre-application to determine whether the research plan is appropriate and relevant to our goals. Submission of proposals is exclusively electronic for all parts of the proposal, including institutional approval and appendix materials, and no paper copies of any part of the proposal will be sent to the Society. In place of the former coversheet, institutional approval by your organization to submit your application will be made electronically using the same online system. The application process itself consists of two parts, a short pre-application and the full application.

Please see the sponsor website for full application details.

INDIRECT COSTS WILL NOT BE PROVIDED FOR GRANTS OUTSIDE USA.

NOTE: All Letters of Intent and Full Applications must be processed through Research Development & Services for institutional approval. Requests for Institutional approvals should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. A ROLA Proposal (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean electronic approvals) is required for each submission.
