Celebrating a decade of impact and an incredible milestone for our clinical team

We are proud of our team, recognized with the 2026 James B. Erdmann Team Award for Excellence in Interprofessional Collaborative Practice, a distinction which honors clinical teams delivering truly exceptional, person-centered care.

This award reflects the heart of our mission: a collaborative approach where every discipline works together to support patients and families with compassion, expertise, and innovation.

As we mark our 10th anniversary as a center, this honor is especially meaningful. It belongs to every member of our team together with the people living with ALS and their families who inspire us every day.

Here’s to 10 years of collaboration, care, and community, and to many more ahead. 💙

As always, the Robert Packard Center for ALS Research at Johns Hopkins Research Symposium was outstanding. Three days of collaboration, data sharing, innovation, and excellent science brought together researchers dedicated to advancing ALS research.

The Weinberg ALS Center– Jefferson team was proud to contribute six poster presentations this year. Trainees Brianna Lisi, Ivette Martorell-Serra, and Megan Muench presented their work alongside colleagues Brigid Jensen, Maria Cicardi, and Hristelina Ilieva. Aaron Haeusler and Lin Guo also shared updates on their Packard Center–funded project.

We thank the Packard Center for hosting another exceptional symposium and for continuing to foster a collaborative and rigorous scientific community dedicated to advancing ALS research.

We are saddened by the loss of Eric Dane.

His journey with ALS was short, but his courage, honesty, and humanity left a lasting mark. Through his openness, and his advocacy for ALS research and awareness, he helped the world better understand the realities of this disease and the urgent need to advance science.

While we mourn his passing, we honor the empathy, visibility, and momentum he brought to the ALS community, and we remain committed to care, research, and the advancement of treatments.

To every person living with ALS — and to every caregiver and family member — we stand with you today and always.

💙 10 years of care. 10 years of impact.

We are deeply grateful for the incredible support of our patients, families, clinicians, researchers, donors, and community who have made this decade possible for our Weinberg ALS center.

Over the past 10 years, together we’ve made a meaningful impact, advancing care, strengthening collaboration, research, education and standing beside the ALS community. And we’re just getting started.

💙 As we celebrate this milestone, we look ahead with hope, determination, and a renewed commitment to making an even greater impact in the next 10 years.
