The Euan MacDonald Centre is a network of over 200 researchers across Scotland. Since it was established by the MacDonald family in 2007 the Centre’s research has been focused on discovering treatments, improving quality of life for people with motor neuron disease (MND) and understanding the biology of MND. It is our aim to make discoveries that will slow, stop and eventually reverse this devastating condition. Alongside our research, we are also delivering training for the next generation of MND research leaders and working with other charities and Scottish healthcare professionals to increase awareness of MND and MND research.
