California ALS Research Network held the first California ALS Research Summit June 27-28 in San Francisco. This two-day meeting included over fifty California leaders in ALS research, as well as representatives from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine, and The ALS Association. The purpose was to share information in three main areas of ALS research (protein aggregation, stem cells and molecular therapies); create discussion about ALS research funding; and foster networking among scientists, clinicians, biotech companies and ALS advocates.
