To be able to respond nimbly to new ALS research discoveries, ALS Canada sponsors ad- hoc gatherings of ALS researchers to share knowledge on timely topics related to ALS.
Sponsorship requests are reviewed and assessed by ALS Canada’s Scientific and Medical Advisory Council.
We also provide travel stipends to up to 15 Canadian ALS researchers each year to present their work at the International Symposium on ALS/MND.
It is the premiere international ALS research conference in the world, organized by the International Alliance of ALS/MND Associations.
Below are the recent examples of events that we have proudly sponsored:
Over 100 Canadian scientist and clinicians have been provided these awards to ensure their discoveries are seen on a global stage with the aim of enhancing borderless collaboration and impact.
