In classrooms around the country, high school students are even building projects on real ALS data. When that many researchers work from the same resource, redundant studies end and validated findings build on each other instead of starting from scratch.

The Neuromine Data Portal is used by principal investigators at leading research universities, computational biologists at major pharmaceutical companies, graduate students working on early-stage hypotheses, and biotech founders running drug discovery.

One investment has gone a remarkably long way, and every additional dollar extends it further. Learn more about how you can help at answerals.org #ALSResearch #Neuromine #OpenScience #AnswerALS #EndALS #DataDrivenDiscovery #ResearchFunding

over $210 million in research value across over 670+ projects. Open data sharing can also shorten research timelines by up to 65%, which represents $30 to $40 million in saved time across the field.

Answer ALS invested $45 million to build Neuromine and generate the matched stem cell lines behind it. The average independent ALS research project costs around $200,000, so by making more than 150 terabytes of data freely available, that original investment has translated into

Faster data access hands time back to the people who have the least time to spare. Building that speed took years of work, and keeping the portal fast and easily-accessible is driven by donations.

Getting from a hypothesis to an analyzable ALS dataset used to take 12 to 18 months. With Neuromine, a researcher can go straight to data access, and to the matched biosamples that let them validate their hypothesis, in about two weeks.

across four continents. Neuromine makes that scale of work possible. Hundreds of teams can work on the same biology at the same time instead of each having to build their own resource from the ground up.

Nearly 700 independent research projects have launched on the Neuromine Data Portal since 2021, with many more added in the first half of 2026 alone.

Gehrig said he felt lucky because of the people around him. We feel the same about the more than 1,100 participants who gave their blood and their data to Answer ALS, many of whom did not live to see what they helped build.

On July 4, 1939, two weeks after retiring from baseball, Lou Gehrig stood at a microphone at Yankee Stadium and told the crowd of more than 61,000 people that he considered himself the luckiest man on the face of the earth.

The last day of ALS Awareness Month. Where things stand: nearly 600 research projects launched through Neuromine. 88 peer-reviewed publications to date. Champion Insights actively enrolling toward its 500-participant target. New projects launching every week on four continents.
