As the year draws to a close we want to leave you with our industry and research wins of 2024 while looking ahead to 2025 and what will be the AIBN’s 20th year Here are some of our biggest moments: buff.ly/3VGfE6a

🥼 Amazing news from the AIBN today, with @NgoShyuan winning $1.3m funding from @FightMND to attack motor neurone disease from totally a new angle! 🧵/

Dr Shu receives two FightMND grants this year: a discovery project grant and an IMPACT grant in disease heterogeneity research. Learn more about her #MNDresearch by downloading our 2024 cure and care investments booklet here: fightmnd.org.au/our-impact/

Congratulations to the amazing researchers awarded @FightMND funding to support much needed research into improving our understanding of #MND. Thank you to every donor that made this possible.

Drumroll please.... Our 2024 #MND research and care investments are in. Thanks to our supporters, we're investing $18.89M into the fight! We'll be live posting from our announcement event at @AIBNatUQ but you can also learn more about our impact here: fightmnd.org.au/our-impact/

Recent work in @Brain1878 shows a potential role of #muscle #cholesterol in #ALS - here is a summary in @NeurologyToday and commentary by myself and Prof Stan Appel. Interesting findings but a long way to go before we know if targeting cholesterol in muscle will be helpful.

We are going to not speak for 48 HOURS!!! Duct tape is going to be needed! Every cent counts and every share raises awareness for the beast that is MND! @Steyn_Lab @Ngo_Lab @AmberGreen67157 @StephanieHowe98 @HoldomCory @JerynChang secure.mndandme.com.au/my-fundraising…

#FMNDroundtable24 attendees pitching in our "Dragon's Den" mock scenario. Each team addressed a key challenge facing #MNDresearch and had 5 mins to convince our panel why they should fund their solution. #ALSresearch

An incredible couple of days at our first Global MND Research Roundtable with some of the brightest minds in #MNDresearch and people with lived experience. You bought the Beanies, we brought the brains! #ALSresearch

As well as sharing his own personal experiences with Shu’s lab, Ray also works hard to raise both awareness and funds for her broader work at the AIBN, whether that’s behind the grill at a Bunnings sausage sizzle, or as a participant in the upcoming Bridge to Brisbane.
