Ales for ALS™

Since 2013, the Ales for ALS™ program has raised over $2,200,000 for ALS research at the ALS Therapy Development Institute (ALS TDI).

We Love Data

Every person living with ALS is needed to find effective treatments for ALS. That is why our researchers created the Precision Medicine Program (PMP), a partnership with people living with ALS, and the most comprehensive translational research study in ALS.

If you or someone you know is enrolled in a clinical trial, trying an experimental treatment for ALS, or simply interested in tracking symptom progression, we recommend enrolling in our PMP. Participants are given access to their data through a secure online portal, while our scientists take a dive deep into their medical histories, family histories, genetics, biomarkers, and cell biology to better understand the processes that drive and influence ALS.
