Communications Coordinator | Network Administrator at Neuromuscular Disease Network for Canada (NMD4C) - Ottawa, ON, ca
The Neuromuscular Disease Network for Canada (NMD4C), launched in January 2020, is a Canadian network that brings together the country's leading clinical, scientific, technical, and patient expertise on neuromuscular disease. The rarity and diversity of neuromuscular diseases make interdisciplinary collaboration and networking essential to future progress. For such collaboration to be meaningful, patients, advocates, clinicians, researchers, and industry professionals must work together as partners to identify health problems and research gaps, set priorities, and co-develop appropriate outputs that enable the best outcomes for Canadians. NMD4C strives to achieve these outcomes by uniting neuromuscular disease stakeholders in a formal network, training and educating neuromuscular disease stakeholders, strengthening biomedical and clinical infrastructure to build research capacity, and raising the standard of care and access to therapies.
