MDA RESEARCH:
ALS Update

A report from one of the world's leading ALS researchers on the status of work on this devastating disease.

This presentation, shown on the national broadcast of the 1998 Jerry Lewis MDA Labor Day Telethon, shatters the myth that no progress has been made in the fight against ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig's disease) and highlights MDA's leading role in this effort.
