Cracking the MND Mystery: Australia’s First Surveillance Centre Opens in Wagga Wagga

www.abc.net.au/news/1049669...

#MNDResearch #RiverinaHealth #MacquarieUniversity #WaggaWagga
(ID Belinda Acott's with father Warren who died from MND in 2024) Motor neurone disease (MND) is three times more common in the NSW Riverina. Macquarie University has launched Australia’s first MND surveillance centre in Wagga Wagga to investigate environmental triggers and pinpoint causes. Over the next three years, researchers will work closely with patients to uncover critical insights that could lead to prevention.
