  • Write and update research information sheets on MND topics for public and specialist readers.
  • Create and manage research content for the MND Association website, ensuring information is engaging and easy to navigate.
  • Collaborate on social media content for MND research updates on platforms like Twitter.
  • Support the Communications team with press releases, FAQs, and research news articles.
  • Act as a contact point for MND research enquiries, managing the research email inbox and responding to calls.
