Brain research breakthrough opens new path to treating neurological diseases

Millions suffering from neurodegenerative diseases like ALS stand to benefit from accelerated treatment development efforts.

For generations, scientists have labored in the foundational dark of neuroscience, mapping the brain's vast interior the way early explorers charted coastlines — not yet knowing what the maps would make possible. Now, at a genuine inflection point, the Allen Institute is committing $400 million to the belief that the maps are complete enough to navigate by, targeting five neurological diseases including ALS with treatments built from decades of accumulated brain atlas data. It is a shift from the patient work of understanding to the urgent work of healing — a moment when preparation becomes ac
