Can We Help You Find What You Need?
This is Your Lab
As you read this, our team of researchers and scientists are urgently working in our Boston-area lab – screening drugs, studying animal models, and collecting and analyzing data from people with ALS. The complexity of this disease is staggering, but we are relentless. We will not stop until we have treatments for everyone living with ALS.
“I support ALS TDI because not only is their focus on ALS research and finding a treatment, but ALS TDI focuses on the ALS community, those actually living with the disease. ALS TDI understands the urgency that people with ALS live with in finding a treatment and is driven by that urgency.”

Making An Impact

Our scientific team created AT-1501, a potential treatment for ALS that is now in clinical trials. We've also pioneered the first ALS Precision Medicine Program to help identify more potential treatments faster. Our team is working on an urgent basis to identify more potential treatments and make them available to people living with ALS.
