To understand the genetic basis of #ALS and to ultimately find a cure for this devastating, fatal neuromuscular disease, Project MinE aims to analyse the DNA of at least 15,000 ALS patients and 7,500 control subjects. projectmine.com

Our DNA sequence contains a complex genetic code. Determining which DNA variants relate to #ALS is very challenging. Project MinE researchers all around the globe are collaborating to overcome this challenge. projectmine.com/project-mine-j…

Tazelaar et al. show an association between intermediate ATXN1 repeat expansions and ALS, possibly via mislocalization of TDP-43, emphasizing the role of polyglutamine expansions in the pathophysiology of ALS bit.ly/30r9tHk Project MinE @LeonardvandBerg Ammar Al-Chalabi

A new breakthrough from Project MinE! We show that a ‘repeat expansion’– an abnormal repetition of a stretch of DNA – in the ATXN1 gene increases the chance of developing ALS. Our findings are published in @BrainComms. Read more about our results here: projectmine.com/atxn1-a-new-re…

More than 200.000 people worldwide are living with ALS. Project MinE is a large-scale research initiative devoted to discovering the genetic cause of ALS. The goal is to identify genes that are associated with ALS. Make a donation or start a campaign today projectmine.com/campaigns

Two recent NEJM studies on genomic therapies for #ALS patients show that genetic discoveries can directly lead to the development of genomic therapies for ALS patients. This reinforces the relevance of #ProjectMinE to patients with ALS. projectmine.com/genomic-therap…

We are saddened to hear of the passing of Pat Quin. As co-founder of the #IceBucketChallenge his inspiration helped to kickstart #ProjectMinE to obtain the first whole genomes. Since them Project MinE has contributed to the discovery of several ALS-genes
