As Kev starts his final day of the #7in7in7 challenge, the latest and exciting research is being presented at #alsmndsymp. The scale and momentum of #MND #ALS research is greater than ever! The money raised by Kev will help continue this momentum. We can’t thank Kev enough 💚

We heard from Laura how star shaped brain cells, called astrocytes ⭐, might not work properly in #MND. She shared how restoring the function of astrocytes may help protect motor neurons. This could be a potential target for future therapy development. #alsmndsymp

Ready for the session on TDP-43 - TDP-43 is a protein that aggregates in ALS and is one of the unifying pathologies across almost all ALS. #alsmndsymp

It’s the final day of #alsmndsymp! In the last two days we’ve heard over 85 presentations from researchers around the world and there’s still more to come! 🌍 Today we’ll hear more about models used to study #MND in the lab and ways to improve clinical trial design. 🔬

Over the past 3 days over 1600 people from the #MND #ALS community came together to share the most exciting and promising research. We heard over 100 talks and saw almost 400 posters. Thank you for participating. Together we can create a world free of MND. 💚 #alsmndsymp

Had such an amazing time at #alsmndsymp hearing about the most exciting ALS/MND research and meeting fellow researchers. Was a really great experience for my first international conference, and I was so grateful to be able to present a poster of my research!

Really enjoyed hosting Derik Steyn Amber Sewell-Green Jeryn Chang and Sally Neville in Sheffield! Great to discuss research ideas and exciting opportunities for future collaborations! Thanks FoH RSA, University of Sheffield for awarding me and Ben Hall a Career Development Award to host this event!

#Researcherspotlight 💡 Dr Tobias Moll from Neuroscience Institute is investigating how communication breaks down between motor neurons. He aims to test a new potential treatment strategy and hopefully reduce damage to nerve cells. More info: mndassociation.org/research/our-r…

Well, I won’t be expecting the call from BBC Strictly ✨ any time soon! 😂 But I somehow got through it and it was all for a wonderful person and a vital cause: the Rob Burrow Centre for MND Leeds Teaching Hospitals. Any final donations very gratefully received 🙏🏻👇🏻 donate.giveasyoulive.com/fundraising/ba…

Great to see Ben Hall talking about his research! Earlier this year he also wrote a guest blog discussing the importance of using models of #MND #ALS to help find out what goes wrong in the disease. 🧫 Read his blog to find out more ⬇️ mndresearch.blog/2024/03/14/rec…
