🎉We are excited to announce that a research team led from Menzies @UTAS_ has been awarded $3 million by the National Health and Medical Research Council @nhmrc to establish the Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Centre of Research Excellence.
Full release here 👉bit.ly/MS-CRE

Great to see Tram's paper online showing that rTMS increased interneuron activity following demyelination and increased remyelination by new and surviving oligodendrocytes. Thanks to coauthors including @DrCarlieCullen , @AlastairFortune , @LauraReale12 , @Tomlewis2310 .
The CRE team includes @FletcherJL @nickomatics Samantha Barton, Corey Smith, Yuanhao Yang, Brett Drummond @MStranslate @NovoronBio Anna Ritchie, @MS_Australia , Simon Broadley and Max Parmar.
I am pleased to launch the Multiple Sclerosis Centre of Research Excellence, funded by the NHMRC. I look forward to working with Bruce Taylor, @williamreay96 , Ingrid van der Mei, @aydzhouyuan , @BradASutherland , Jake Gratten, @NatashaJStevens , Leonid Churilov & Chris Gumley
I enjoyed coauthoring this @TrendsNeuro spotlight with @FletcherJL showcasing interesting research from @aiman_saab and others in the area of oligondendrocyte-axon interactions.

We look forward to starting work on our NHMRC Ideas grant with @FletcherJL, @nickomatics, @BradASutherland and @BruestleLab. Together we will find out how MS-associated genetic variants alter brain cell function.
Our project will use IPSCs from the @ResearchMenzies MS Stem biobank. We will make more iPSC lines available through MS Stem as the project progresses.

We’re excited to be part of the new PLATYPUS clinical trial which launched yesterday at #MSResearchConf2023. PLATYPUS, which will test the efficacy of potential brain repair treatments in people with progressive MS, is an extension of the UK's OCTOPUS trial launched in April '23.

A busy week for our MS Research Flagship's Professor Kaylene Young (@LabGlial) in Perth, WA. First stop @PerronInstitute, then #MSResearchConf2023
Yesterday, we welcomed Professor Kaylene Young to Perron Institute, who shared a research seminar on her MS research and the work of the MS Flagship, based at Menzies Institute for Medical Research at the University of Tasmania to a group of researchers and students.
