The International Federation of Multiple Sclerosis Societies is pleased to
announce funding for an exciting new research initiative:
International Multiple Sclerosis Trials, Research and Resource Center
(IMSTRaRC)
At the centre of our global research vision is the vital task of continually
building momentum to develop new and more effective ways of controlling MS
and finding a cure.
The Federation is launching the International Multiple Sclerosis Trials,
Research and Resource Center (IMSTRaRC) where sophisticated statistical
methods will be used to identify clinical and MRI predictors of the course
of MS. The Center is likely to be located in an appropriate biomedical
research and/or statistical institution. The aim is to develop alternative
approaches to clinical trials which will avoid the necessity for placebo
control. The key resource will be a large database containing clinical and
MRI data.
Expressions of interest should be submitted on no more than two A4 pages to
include a broad outline of costs. The proposal document is available on
request.
Please send submissions, quoting reference 12/A, to: Prof. Ian McDonald,
International Federation of MS Societies, 10 Heddon Street, London W1R 7LJ,
UK
