  • Description:
    The National ALS Registry is a program to collect, manage, and analyze data about people with ALS. It is important to include as many people with the disease as pos- sible to get the most accurate information.

    Because learning more about ALS is an important step in the battle to defeat it, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) has developed a national registry to gather information from people who are living with ALS. This information can help doctors and scientists learn more as they work toward a cure.
