“On the third day of Christmas MND research gives to you… THREE days of the 25th International symposium on ALS/MND”

From 5 – 7 December 2014 the Association held its annual research conference, the 25th International Symposium on ALS/MND. This year, the event was held in Brussels, where just shy of 900 researchers attended to hear the latest MND research news, form new collaborations and hear about the latest developments in care practice.

The three days of the symposium brought you news of a potential new biomarker for MND, the Sheffield Support Snood, induced pluripotent stem cell technology and the latest developments on assistive technology. We brought you 12 LIVE reports from the event, translating the science and highlighting what it means to people living with MND.

I work as a Research Officer within the MND Association to help organise the International Symposium and communicating the latest updates of MND research across our social media platforms. I graduated with a master's degree in Neuroscience from Cardiff University in 2023. I have previously supported the awareness of Fragile X syndrome within the UK.
