NMD4C and MDC Award Fellowship Funding in NMD Research and Medicine
Together the Neuromuscular Disease Network for Canada (NMD4C) and Muscular Dystrophy Canada (MDC) are excited to announce the 2025 recipients of our neuromuscular fellowship funding competition to award postdoctoral fellowships in neuromuscular disease (NMD) research and clinical fellowships in neuromuscular medicine and electromyography!
Learn more about the 2025 fellows!
The 2025 competition provides salary support for three early-career scientists to conduct postdoctoral studies in laboratories focused on NMD research, and two early-career neurologists to participate in neuromuscular medicine and electromyography training programs. Successful applicants receive $40 000 in funding over a one-year period for postdoctoral fellowships, and $80 000 in funding over a one-year period for clinical fellowships. This year’s fellowship awards are made possible by the generous supporters of MDC, and one clinical fellowship through an unrestricted educational grant from Roche Canada.
This competition involves an extensive review by leading Canadian neuromuscular researchers and clinicians to ensure the top-ranked candidates are selected for this funding opportunity. From the entire neuromuscular community, congratulations to all 2025 recipients!
