Motor Neurone Disease NZ (MND NZ) has opened their first Research Grant Round with three research grants of up to $10,000 each available.

These grants are to encourage research to improve evidence-based care, support and potentially even treatment for people with motor neurone disease (MND).

Grants are for MND-specific research projects, and can support postgraduate fees, summer studentships, or co-funding for MND-specific research within a larger research programme.

Applications are encouraged from:

• Academics working in MND-related areas

• Allied health professionals who work with people with MND, working in conjunction with an academic

• Those who work in related areas who haven’t done MND research before.

MND-related work areas include health sciences (including speech & language, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, nutrition, respiration), neurology, nursing, and palliative care.

Applications close at 5.00pm on 27 November 2026. Find out more and apply via the MND NZ research grants webpage: https://mnd.org.nz/research/researchgrants/
