Research We Fund
Your generous support enables the ALS Network to fund promising research across the globe. From individual projects to global collaborations, we provide funding to experts in a variety of scientific focus areas critical to advancing the search for treatments and cures for ALS.
The ALS Network Research Program
The ALS Network’s Research Program, in collaboration with outstanding partners, provides innovation grants to fund novel yet scientifically rigorous ideas that can transform our understanding of ALS. Grant recipients are selected through a competitive process by our world-class Scientific Advisory Committee.
Our seed funding to establish proof of concept for new scientific approaches potentially positions these visionary projects for larger-scale funding in the future, such as government grants. In addition, our nimble “pitch session” approach to unique projects accelerates the application process, removing red tape and moving promising science forward faster.
