ALS Treatment Prize4Life ($ 1,000,000)

Prize4Life invites applications for its Treatment Prize. Rolling submissions are being accepted until June 6, 2015. Prize4Life is looking for novel treatments that have been shown to be effective in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig’s Disease) mouse models, an important preclinical validation step prior to initiation/consideration of human clinical trials and a critical hurdle for potential therapies. $ 1,000,000 will be awarded for an experimentally validated ALS therapy showing significant efficacy in the disease mouse model.

Prize4Life is a nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating the discovery of treatments and cures for ALS. Its mission is to accelerate the discovery of treatments and a cure for ALS by using powerful incentives to attract new people and drive innovation.
