Basic and Clinical Research

At the ALS Hope Foundation and MDA/ALS Center of Hope, we strongly believe that basic and clinical research are key tactics in our battle against ALS. Always pursuing innovative and collaborative projects, we are proud to support the work of the Neuromuscular Research Lab at Drexel University College of Medicine. There, projects are led by Dr. Terry Heiman-Patterson and Dr. Jeffrey Deitch with the support of technician, Juliann Jiang, and students from the university. Please check back often to learn about new and ongoing projects at the lab.
