National ALS Registry

The National ALS Registry is a program that collects and analyzes information about people diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. It aims to better understand who gets the disease, where they live, and possible risk factors. By gathering data from healthcare providers, hospitals, and directly from patients, the registry helps researchers identify trends and potential causes. This information supports efforts to improve diagnosis, treatment, and eventually find a cure for ALS, ultimately benefiting patients and advancing medical knowledge.
