SUMMARY:January ALS Learning Series: Why Your Participation in the National ALS Registry Matters
DESCRIPTION:About the Program \nJoin us for our January ALS Learning series with Dr. Paul Mehta to learn how the National ALS Registry helps advance research. Dr. Mehta will discuss how to join the National ALS Registry\, what information they collect and why\, and the type of research the registry is conducting.  A Q&A session will follow the discussion. \nALS research depends on people living with ALS to join the National ALS Registry. Every individual’s story can contribute to our understanding of the disease\, its causes\, and how to fight it. \nThe Les Turner ALS Foundation is proud to offer this webinar at no cost to the ALS community. Thank you to Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma America for sponsoring this webinar. \nAbout the Speaker \nDr. Paul Mehta is the principal investigator for the U.S. Congressionally mandated National Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Registry which is part of the CDC. Since 2013\, Dr. Mehta has been responsible for providing medical\, scientific\, and epidemiological expertise on matters related to ALS. Prior to joining the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR)\, he was responsible for overseeing external research initiatives for the National Center for Environmental Health (NCEH) and ATSDR. doctor of medicine (MD) from Fatima Medical Science Foundation and bachelor of arts in biology from the University of Toledo.  \nRegister
