The ALS Gene Carrier Study 

Asymptomatic person with a known ALS Gene

Families Fight Together
A Family-Centered Approach to ALS & FTD Research

We are enrolling individuals and families affected by ALS or FTD,  including people living with the disease, asymptomatic individuals, genetic carriers, and family members who want to help.
 

By participating, families help contribute meaningful data before symptoms appear, support prevention research, accelerate early detection, strengthen future prevention trials, and build the evidence needed for better treatments. This is how families move research forward — together.

 

Participation is fully remote. Individuals or families share simple health data from home using digital tools that track speech, movement, and long-term changes over time. There’s no blood tests to begin, and no genetic testing required to join. 

 

Whether you’re living with ALS, are an asymptomatic gene carrier, or are a family member who wants to help, join now. Grab your family and submit our interest form below. Together, we can turn data into prevention.

Who Can Join:
