The premodiALS project was discussed with the ALS interest group at an online meeting in March 2023 to raise awareness for participation in this project. The German Society for Muscle Disorders (DGM) featured premodiALS on their website. We thank the DGM for this generous support of premodiALS!
After approval of the local ethics commission, the first patient entered the premodiALS trial. We are excited to have started recruitment at the Munich site now and thank all patients and relatives who are interested in participating. They make an important contribution to the understanding of early ALS and towards a better diagnosis of this disease.
We congratulate our team member Professor Mary-Louise Rogers to the award of a FIGHT MND grant. This will permit Professor Rogers to fund her research for the premodiALS project. She says: "This is an exciting opportunity to work collaboratively with MND researchers in Europe and Australia to, for the first time, identify an ‘early signature or fingerprint’ of MND.” – Associate Professor Mary-Louise Rogers
