In July 2016 Andrew was diagnosed with ALS. In the time since, Andrew and his family have become more hopeful, not less. Andrew's life's work is education, and this is the lens through which he views ALS.
There has never been a more exciting time in ALS science. The creativity that comes with looking at problems from different angles, collaboratively, and with unprecedented advances in technology, gives justified cause for hope. The avalanche of ideas in the scientific world of this fight calls for commensurate creativity in the world of support.
