What does it take to move ALS research and care forward?

Our new blog takes you inside ALS Advance: National Meetings 2026, a national gathering that brought together researchers, clinicians, and the ALS community to challenge ideas, share perspectives, and rethink how we work together.

From supporting early-career researchers to improving care and opening up honest conversations about clinical trials, this is about building a stronger, more connected ALS ecosystem.

“Physiotherapy plays an important role by helping maintain mobility, flexibility, and functional independence for as long as possible. Working with people living with ALS is a deeply rewarding part of my job. We see clients every three months at the Stan Cassidy Centre for Rehabilitation, and build strong relationships with them and their families, encouraging them through every stage of their journey. Our interdisciplinary team works closely together to maintain a client-centred approach, which challenges us creatively to focus on meaningful goals for the client and their families.”

May is National Physiotherapy Month. Physiotherapists (PTs), like Meghan, play an integral role in supporting the independence and quality of life of people living with ALS. 💜 Thank you to the incredible PTs supporting Canadians living with ALS.
