Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig&rsquo;s disease, has long mystified the medical community and brought tremendous sorrow to those impacted by the condition. But to tell the story of ALS as one solely of tragedy would do a disservice to those who have long fought to develop an effective treatment or raise awareness. Because it is through their tireless efforts that those with ALS will eventually be able to rewrite their own ending. In today&rsquo;s episode, we attempt to convey the full picture of ALS: from what we know about its causes to the earliest medical descriptions, from the baseball player whose impassioned speech captured the public&rsquo;s hearts to the promising research on the horizon. Tune in for all this and more.
