How do you treat the 'cruellest disease'?

Sheffield researchers are working to make motor neurone disease (MND) history. From developing effective disease-modifying therapies to finding ways to improve the lives of MND patients.

Excited to share a new publication which I had the opportunity to work on:

This is my first published paper listed as an author and an important milestone in my career as an ECR.

Great work from everyone involved!

@AstroMysz @SarahMGranger Thanks to @mndassoc for funding this research that looks at candidate causation of TDP-43 pathology in #MND/#ALS, using CNS tissue from real human patients.

[Dr Monika A Myszczynska @AstroMysz]

Fantastic talk by @SarahMGranger at #SMPHresearchmeeting24 on a new pathology in motor neuron disease.

[Sarah Granger @SarahMGranger]

@AstroMysz Thanks @AstroMysz!! ☺️🥳

Had a great time with the @neuroshef neuropath team at #BNS2024 this week and was thrilled to present my PhD research! #MND #ALS 🧠👩🏻‍🔬🔬

[Marianne King @DrMarianneKing]

Definitely apply if you’re an ECR working on MND! It was a really fun and worthwhile event, with genuinely enjoyable networking (as someone who hates networking). 😇

[MND Research @PremiumXRemark]

The future of motor neurone disease research looks bright ✨

Last week we brought early career researchers, senior researchers and people living with and affected by #MND to connect, collaborate and develop skills. 🤝

Hear what attendees thought of the event ⬇

[MND Research @PremiumXRemark]

“One of the early career researchers might just hold the cure in their hands and they just don’t know it yet.”

Did you hear about #MNDEnCouRageUK this week but not sure what it is? 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬

Watch below to find out why the event is so important in the fight against #MND.

[MND Research @PremiumXRemark]

That’s a wrap on #MNDEnCouRageUK 2023!

Thanks so much for all the presenters and the MND community for joining us.

And a big thanks to all the fantastic early career researchers. We are so excited to see where your careers in #MND research go in the future! 🔬🥼

[Sarah Granger @SarahMGranger]

What an amazing event at #MNDEnCouRageUK this week! It was a privilege to present my work and meet people living with #MND #ALS - a great reminder of what we’re all aiming to achieve in our research 👩🏻‍🔬

[Sarah Granger @SarahMGranger]

I’m so thrilled to see this success in the RAR project and proud to have contributed to this work at @neuroshef - exciting times ahead!

[BenevolentAI @benevolent_ai]

#BenevolentNews: Pleased to announce that we have progressed BEN-34712 into IND-enabling studies.

BEN-34712 is an oral, potent and selective brain penetrant RARɑ𝛃-biased agonist being developed for the potential treatment of #ALS.

The FDA has authorised the first approved drug for a rare form of MND based on the results of a clinical trial completed at the Uni of Sheffield. This is a major scientific advance that will transform how researchers conduct MND clinical trials. https://t.co/YReIEm4FKv

[Prof Janine Kirby @J9Kirby]

Great to see @SarahMGranger featured by the MNDA @neuroshef @sheffunimdh

[Sarah Granger @SarahMGranger]

Very grateful to the @mndassoc for funding my PhD research! 🧠🔬

[MND Research @PremiumXRemark]

Researchers around the world work tirelessly to find effective treatments for #MND #ALS 🌍

We fund cutting-edge research, and invest in the future MND leaders of tomorrow.

Sarah Granger is 1 of 22 @mndassoc PhD students who plays an invaluable role in the fight against MND.

[Baron Bob of the Ganglion @JRobinHighley]

The @neuroshef #neuropath team put on a good show at the @BNS_updates winter meeting in London.

@BridgetAAshford, we missed you!
