Description: |
The Discovery Grant Program supports collaborative projects and encourages multidisciplinary teams,
particularly those that bring together individuals from outside the field who can combine their expertise
in innovative ways. It also aims to provide successful, preliminary data-driven ideas with opportunities for
larger, multi-year funding, ideally leading to translational programs that will bring us closer to a world free
of ALS. The purpose of the 2025 Discovery Grant Program is to invest in high-impact projects focused on: a)
identifying causes of, or treatments for, ALS and/or related neurological diseases, including primary lateral
sclerosis, progressive muscular atrophy, and ALS/FTLD (frontotemporal lobar dementia), or b) advancing
research aimed at maximizing function, minimizing disability, and optimizing quality of life through
symptom management and support for individuals or families living with ALS. |
