ALS Therapy Development Institute

There are an estimated 30,000 people with ALS in the United States and about 450,000 worldwide. People in the ALS community understand how devastating this disease is. We want people outside of the community to know about the pressing need for treatments.

You can help us spread the word about ALS and the research happening at ALS TDI.
