I’ve recently come across ALSUntangled.com, a site that aims to use social media for coordinating research on ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis). Check out the list of completed investigations.
ALSUntangled has been in existence for 15 months. Our NING consists of ALS clinician scientists from across six countries, participating in 32 active discussions. We have published five investigations on six different alternative and off-label treatment options. We have created this website with hopes it will make it easier for clinicians, scientists and PALS to find us and to interact.
These is pretty amazing, I think one of the greatest things that technology has given us, is the easier dissemination of facts, that is crucial for people who needs them for proper understanding.
