ALS Community Education

The staff at the Eleanor & Lou Gehrig MDA/ALS Center is committed to the education of health care professionals, patients and families to improve awareness of research, management and therapeutic treatments for ALS. It is through awareness and active education of the medical community that we will promote better care and ultimately a cure fro ALS.

Faculty and staff of the Center are frequently invited to international and national programs to share their expertise in ALS.
