You can help fight neuromuscular disease and make a difference through supporting innovative research and patient care!

Research

You can:

  1. Participate in groundbreaking basic science research, advancing our understanding of the molecular biology of neuromuscular disorders through tissue sample donation
  2. Register in clinical therapeutic trials
  3. Enroll in neuromuscular disease registries
  4. Make a donation to support neuromuscular disease research and clinical care in Ottawa

    Your support enables us to advance promising new research and treatment programs, train future generations of physicians and scientists, expand vital support services and share our knowledge with the community.

Éric Poulin Centre for Neuromuscular Disease Fund

Over 3000 Canadians are currently living with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Each year, approximately 1000 Canadians die from ALS. This fund, named in honor of Dr. Eric Poulin, was established to help support the CNMD’s mission to be an international leader in ALS research and help patients living with ALS and their families.

This fund allows us to build research capacity through expansion of infrastructure, participation in studies and trials, and the training of the next generation of ALS researchers.

This fund also supports the funding of two Scholarship in Translational Research (STaR) Awards for trainee-level scientists specifically involved with motor neuron disease or ALS-related disorders.

Donations

Charitable gifts to the CNMD provide critical support for innovative neuromuscular research as well as new and advanced patient care and services.
