PSPA Research Strategy
The PSPA Research Strategy comprises of four strategic elements identified from a three month consultation with patients, carers, clinicians, researchers and organisations with a link to PSP & CBD. The implementation of the strategy is supported by our Research Committee.
The strategy aims to:
- Prioritise PSPA research
- Prevention and causes
- Awareness and education
- Improved diagnosis, reduced misdiagnosis
- Drug discovery and targeted treatments for underlying causes
- Improved interventions for the treatment of all the symptoms of the conditions
2. Support the research stars of the future
3. Engage patients and carers in research
4. Enhance communication, collaboration and change

RESEARCH NETWORK
Our PSP Research Network is central to our research activity. This UK-wide collaboration between leading PSP research centres is a major step towards the achievement of our strategic aims.
PSPA is a member of the Association of Medical Research Charities (AMRC). The AMRC represents medical research charities in the UK and ensures that the research funded by its members meets rigorous scientific standards. AMRC membership gives our donors and fundraisers confidence that we are only funding high quality projects that will provide meaningful outcomes.
The AMRC has a position statement on animal research that all its members abide by. You can read more about this here.
We rely entirely on voluntary donations to drive forward the search for an effective treatment. Find out how you can support us.
