Endpoints Shorts: Dr. Nadia Sethi on Ionis' FUS ASO Trial

One of the most common misconceptions about ALS is that it only affects older white men. In reality, the disease can affect anyone of any age – and of any ethnicity.

Many Shades of ALS, a team within the I AM ALS organization, is working hard to dispel some of these misconceptions. Their mission is to bring attention to people of color living with ALS and the unique challenges they often face – as well as providing resources for their mental, physical, and social well-being.

Juan Reyes is a veteran living with ALS, an advocate, and co-chair of Many Shades of ALS team. Lakeia Nard is a member of the team who lost her son, King’nazir, to a rare form of pediatric ALS and also runs her own nonprofit, Melanin Children Matter. Today, on Endpoints, they join us to talk about how the team came together, its mission, and how the ALS research and medical communities could be better serving people of color with the disease.

Many Shades of ALS: Supporting People of Color with ALS

When dealing with a disease like ALS, it can be hard to know where to turn for reliable information and advice. While your doctor and care team might be able to provide some answers to your questions, there are many topics that they might not be equipped to handle. There are many resources available on the internet, but it can be hard to know if you’ve found a reputable source.

Roon is an app that help solve this problem. It provides answers to questions about disease, including ALS, in the form of short video clips featuring researchers, doctors, caregivers, people with the disease, and more. They provide information about topics like treatments, current research into the causes of the disease, and advice about to day-to-day life.

Today, on Endpoints, we’re joined by Roon’s co-founder and CEO Vikram Bhaskaran to tell us more about the app, and how his own personal experience with ALS helped inspire it.
