The Research Network is open to anyone interested in research who has experience of living with MS or caring for someone with MS. It doesn't matter where you live or how much research experience you have.
We are looking for people who :
- are willing to familiarise themselves with medical and research language
- are good communicators and able to listen to others and express their views
- are able to work collaboratively and supportively with researchers and other people affected by MS
- are willing to work with the MS Society to improve the Research Network
