Description
Summary: The fiscal year 2026 (FY26) Multiple Sclerosis Research Program (MSRP) Early Investigator Research Award (EIRA) supports Multiple Sclerosis-focused research opportunities for individuals in the early stages of their careers, under the guidance of one or more designated Mentors. All applications must address at least one of the FY26 MSRP EIRA focus areas. Distinctive Features: This opportunity allows for early-stage investigators to develop a research project, investigate a problem or question in MS research, and further their intellectual development as an MS researcher of the future. All application components for the EIRA are expected to be written by the Principal Investigator (PI), with appropriate direction from the Mentor(s).
