Dr Amy McCaughey-Chapman whose initial research was funded by the Trust explores a groundbreaking approach to finding a cure for Multiple Sclerosis (MS) by utilising brain cells in a dish. By studying MS in a controlled environment, researchers hope to accelerate the discovery of effective therapies and ultimately find a cure for this debilitating condition.
While this research is still in its early stages, the potential for brain cells in a dish to contribute to an MS cure is significant. If successful, this approach could lead to the development of treatments tailored to individual patients’ needs, improving their quality of life and potentially halting disease progression The next stage of this research is to be funded by the Health Research Council one of NZ’s most important health research funders.
