The MAA has partnered with the University of the Sunshine Coast to conduct research on Myasthenia Gravis and people’s ability to work. The research team is led by Dr. Michele Verdonck.

MG can significantly affect people’s ability to work. Little is understood about the factors that support or hinder people with Myasthenia wanting to work. We are seeking your valued input as a person living with MG. We are conducting research aimed at investigating the factors which impact someone who is living with MG and their ability to engage in and maintain paid work. 

Participants are invited to complete an anonymous online survey, which will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. We are hoping to use the findings from this research to help improve the working lives of those diagnosed with MG through identifying the enablers and barriers commonly experienced.
