About the project

The ALS Knowledge Portal (ALSKP) framework is being developed by a team of scientists and software engineers at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. Data in the ALSKP were generated by the Familial ALS (FALS) and ALS Genetics (ALSGENS) Consortia.

We welcome contributions of data and the involvement of interested researchers in collaborations on analyses, methods, or tool development. Please contact us for more information.
