Our Approach
The ALS Network powers global ALS research efforts. From harnessing innovative ideas to translating scientific concepts into therapies, our collaborative approach accelerates progress and also empowers the next generation of scientists.
Everything we do supports the search for identifying prevention strategies, effective treatments, and cures for ALS.
We fund the most promising research, while inspiring and initiating unique partnerships across all sectors – government, industry, academia, and other nonprofit organizations. We also support the efforts of bright, early-career scientists to spur innovation.
Some of the things we're investing in:
- New treatment approaches in clinical trials
- Innovative projects
- Big data initiatives
- Investigations into environmental factors
- Biomarker research studies

Invested in ALS Research
Our research program is powered by donors who understand and value our nimble, entrepreneurial approach to advancing cutting edge science and moonshots to cure ALS. We are proud to collaborate with leaders across the ALS research ecosystem, including ALS United member organizations who help us fuel state-of-the research to cure ALS together.
“With the ALS Network’s ongoing support, my work in antisense technology, which was once thought of as innovative and risky, has led to clinical trials that could help people with ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases."
