[Ammar Al-Chalabi @AmmarAlChalabi]

I very much enjoyed my time at @NIMHANS_BLR. The clinical care for people with #ALS #MND is outstanding and the research is fascinating and world class. Thank you for inviting me to give this oration and for your wonderful hospitality.

🧠💤 Have MND/ALS? Help us understand.

Sleep is more than a symptom, it reflects underlying disease processes, affects quality of life, and may offer clues for new treatments.

Take part in a 15-min @kingsmnd survey to guide future care and research.

🌡️ Summer 2025 was the warmest on record in the UK, with four major heatwaves.

Extreme heat is no longer rare, and for people with MND ALS, it can be especially challenging.

We’re studying how people with MND prepare for and cope with heatwaves to guide future support 👇

[Dr Ahmad Al-Khleifat @AhmadAlKhleifat]

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ALS/MND still has only one widely used treatment, and not everyone benefits in the same way. We wanted to understand why

No large-scale study had yet explored whether genetic variation in drug metabolism could shape ALS risk or treatment response

We must find an effective treatment for #ALS #MND

Please consider filling in this survey on sleep disturbance to help our researchers

#ALS #MND

[Lee Millard @onein300]

Data, data, data. The more data researchers have the better the insights they can get.

Sleep, as anyone with #mnd will know, becomes less relaxing & more a day to day focus on getting good sleep,

Please fill this survey in if you can #als #mnd patients
