All candidates must:

Be educated to post graduate level (at least MSc, preferably PhD/MD) in an area relevant to multiple sclerosis.

Candidates must also be in one of the following situations:

Working or studying in a low- or middle-income country (all countries with a low, lower middle or upper middle income as defined by the World Bank) at the time of application.
