Western University researchers, led by Dr. Michael Strong, discover a potential ALS cure targeting protein interactions in nerve cells.

Western University researchers, led by Dr. Michael Strong, have discovered a potential path toward a cure for ALS, targeting an interaction between two proteins in ALS-impacted nerve cells. This interaction can halt or fully reverse the progression of the disease. The breakthrough is the culmination of decades of Western research backed by the Temerty Foundation, and the study was published in the journal Brain.
