Could an ancient virus cause Motor Neurone Disease (MND), and if so, could targeted therapy against the virus lead to more effective treatments of the disease?
That’s what a team from the Flinders Health and Medical Research Institute (FHMRI) is seeking to discover in a groundbreaking new research project.
Under the leadership of FHMRI researcher Associate Professor Mary-Louise Rogers, the team has received almost $1 million in funding from leading Australian funding organisation FightMND to continue Rogers’ innovative research into MND.
