🚨 New from our lab: Here we explored how aging contributes to harmful protein aggregation in diseases like Huntington’s & ALS.
The culprit? An overlooked aging factor — EPS8 and RAC signaling. #Aging #Longevity #Proteostasis #ALSResearch

URGENT: Protect #ALS Research Funding! Congress may slash CDMRP funding in the CR, halting critical ALS research. ALS cases could rise 70% by 2030, & veterans face 2x the risk. We must act NOW! Tell your Senators to protect funding! als-ny.org/the-threat-t... #ALSResearch

A computer-based analysis of whole-blood samples identified 10 genes with altered activity that researchers say may have potential as biomarkers for diagnosing and tracking ALS.

There are also ongoing clinical trials testing new drugs and therapies that may help extend quality of life for patients.

There is still no cure for ALS, but science is moving forward every day—bringing hope for the future 💡

We are deeply concerned about proposed CR, which would cut FY25 funding for CDMRP by 57%—from $1.5 billion to $650M. This devastating cut would severely impact critical ALS research, slowing progress toward new treatments. We urge Congress to protect this vital funding. #ALSResearch #ALS #ALSUnited
