Researchers went the Extra Mile in York earlier this week!
It was fantastic to see Professor Johnathan Cooper-Knock, the first Rob Burrow Professor, and Professor Sean Sweeney, chair of our Biomedical Research Advisory Panel, lace up for day 2’s Extra Mile with Sir Kev and the team. 🧡
Thank you to Alex Holland from University of York for the great action shot!

MND research is too complex for any one organisation to solve alone.
We're bringing researchers, clinicians, industry partners, people affected by MND and others together to drive progress.
If you work in MND research or a related field, we'd love your input.
