ALS Research Center

An ALS Research Center focuses on studying amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a progressive neurological disease that affects nerve cells controlling muscle movement. The center's goal is to understand what causes ALS, develop effective treatments, and improve patient care. Researchers investigate genetic, biological, and environmental factors involved in the disease, often collaborating across disciplines. They also conduct clinical trials to test new therapies. By advancing scientific knowledge, the center aims to find ways to slow, halt, or eventually cure ALS, helping patients maintain their health and quality of life.
