FY20 DOD ALS Research Program Announcements are out! Lots of changes - greater emphasis on biomarker development in parallel to therapeutics and data sharing plans, funding more novel innovative ideas, and a new Clinical Development Award. Check 'em out! https://cdmrp.army.mil/funding/pdf/20alsrpreftable.pdf

Many changes were informed by broadly surveying the ALS community - researchers, clinicians, peer reviewers, pALS, cALS, and ALS Warriors and Ambassadors. Thank you to everyone who completed the survey! #endals
