Research Programs

The ALS Society of Canada is committed to:

  • Investing our research funds where they will have the most impact.
  • Funding excellent and relevant peer-reviewed research.
  • Funding research that is evaluated at a high level using international evaluation methods adopted by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research.

We fund only the most promising projects by the finest scientists and, over the years, this strategy has been rewarded with significant advances in our knowledge of ALS. With the acceleration of results due to advances in neurology and other areas of science, we know that, effective therapies and a cure are now, more than ever, within reach.
