Advance the Future of ALS Research — Funding Opportunity Opens April 15

ALS New Mexico, in partnership with the ALS Network, proudly announces letters of intent for ALS research funding will be accepted April 15 – May 15, 2025.

ALS United members lead nonprofit support for scientists studying ALS by building partnerships across the ALS research ecosystem to directly fund global research initiatives.

The ALS Research Innovation Initiative provides grants to fund novel, scientifically rigorous ideas that can transform our understanding of ALS. With oversight provided by a Scientific Advisory Committee in partnership with a Community Research Committee, a nimble “pitch session” approach to vet unique projects accelerates the application and award process, moving promising science forward faster. Our unique niche in the research funding landscape helps propel up-and-coming, disruptive ideas to later phases in the discovery pipeline.

The 2025 application process will open April 15, with details shared soon via a dedicated online submission form and via ALS United social media accounts. For questions about the process or the ALS Research Innovation Initiative, email research@alsnetwork.org.
