Project Aim(s): The aim is to use epidemiologic and clinical datasets to track in detail the patient journey in ALS, and from this to provide a robust staging system, generate cost models and appropriate health economic metrics, and to inform the design of a user-friendly electronic care matrix for optimal ALS management that can be used by non-specialists, and that in turn can be modified for use in other neurodegenerative conditions.
