Unraveling the mysteries of ALS

  • Resumen

  • Can we prevent ALS before it starts? ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is a profoundly complex and destructive disease, characterized by the progressive loss of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord which enable muscle movement. It steals the body's strength and challenges nearly every aspect of life. There is currently no known cure, but groundbreaking research is offering hope.

    Dr. Michael Benatar, an internationally recognized ALS expert, is leading advances that are transforming how we study and treat this devastating disease. The core of Dr. Benatar's research lies in the quest for early intervention. By focusing on pre-symptomatic individuals, especially those genetically predisposed to ALS, he and his team are identifying markers that can predict disease onset. These insights could revolutionize the therapeutic landscape, allowing for preventative measures before symptoms manifest.

    Tune in to unravel the mysteries of ALS and hear about the resilience exhibited by scientists, clinicians and patients confronting this formidable disease.
