2027 Funding Opportunities

  • MDA Conference Grants (CG)

    MDA supports meetings and conferences focused on the muscular dystrophies and related diseases of the neuromuscular system. These are the muscular dystrophies (including Duchenne and Becker); motor neuron diseases (including ALS and SMA); the peripheral nerve disorders (CMT and Friedreich's ataxia); inflammatory myopathies; disorders of the neuromuscular junction; metabolic diseases of muscle as well as other myopathies. Conference grants are awarded to encourage scientific meetings for researchers and/or clinicians to exchange ideas and to establish collaborations. Meetings focused on therapy development will be considered a priority. Conference grants are awarded to applicants who are organizing meetings and not to individuals wishing to travel to conferences.

Contact our Grants Management team for further information about MDA’s Research Grants program and how to apply and/or to request being added to our funding opportunities mailing list: grants@mdausa.org. For a full list of MDA-Covered diseases, see this document.
