Each spring, the Target ALS Annual Meeting brings together members of our Innovation Ecosystem over three days to share the latest breakthroughs in ALS research, forge new collaborations, and drive progress toward effective treatments for ALS.
Our 2025 meeting had the largest attendance in history, with more than 960 attendees present from academic institutions, pharmaceutical and biotech companies, venture capital firms, and nonprofit organizations ( in-person and virtually) reflecting the growth of both the scientists we support and the impact our work has had on expanding ALS research.
Our 2025 Meeting Report:
From Barriers to Breakthroughs: Accelerating the Future of ALS Research for All.
The report offers a comprehensive overview of the groundbreaking science, bold conversations, and collaborative momentum that shaped our 2025 meeting in Boston.
What makes the Target ALS annual meeting so groundbreaking?
The Target ALS Annual Meeting is a highly collaborative ALS conference globally for both researchers and people invested in powering ALS research.
Researchers present their unpublished ongoing work that are on the cutting-edge, and receive real-time feedback from other experts in the field.
Our annual meeting invites stakeholders from across the globe, bringing together people who rarely get the chance to collaborate in one place. The connections forged in this setting have a real, measurable impact on the direction of ALS research.
Target ALS: Inside the Mission
After the 2025 Annual Meeting, we hosted a webinar to dive deeper into our mission. Watch as Dr. Manish Raisinghani, CEO, and Dr. Amy Easton, Senior Director of Scientific Programs, discuss why ALS is such a difficult disease to tackle, the barriers slowing progress in research and how our unique model is designed to overcome these challenges.
