Donate / Academic Departments, Posts & Programmes / Medical Sciences Giving to the Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences The Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences has two roles. It is committed to research that improves understanding of the nervous system and it has responsibility for teaching clinical neurology to medical students and trainee neurologists. Its highly integrated and interdisciplinary environment enables new approaches to the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of neurological diseases, such as stroke, Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis Eye Cancer Research fund for Ocular Oncology Research Eye Cancer Research fund for ocular oncology research at Oxford University/Oxford Eye Hospital. Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences General Support Gifts will be directed towards the Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences' area of greatest need. Autoimmune Neurology Group Gifts will help our group on the accurate and state-of-the-art detection of neurological autoantibodies from patients with Autoimmune Encephalitis/Epilepsy and Neuromyelitis Optica, and develop a better understanding of their causes, and optimal treatment Professor Russell Foster Sleep Circadian Neuroscience Institute Research Group Gifts will be directed towards supporting early career researchers to study the impact of morning light therapy. It will also enable them to develop sleep education interventions to improve teenage sleep, health and wellbeing across the UK. Multiple Sclerosis Research Group Your donation will help research into this debilitating disease Motor Neurone Disease Research Group Gifts will help Oxford’s researchers to increase an understanding of Motor Neurone Disease (MND), to identify new treatments for patients, and ultimately to find a cure.
