The NMD4C Collaborative Research Training Award program will provide funding awards of $2000 for research trainees to visit another neuromuscular lab within Canada to work on a collaborative research project while gaining hands-on experience, learning new techniques, and further developing their expertise in neuromuscular disease-focused research.
Mark your calendars – the program will launch on May 6, 2025, and will accept applications until June 15, 2025.
