Data showcase webinar

Discover the datasets powering the Longitude Prize on ALS, a global challenge Prize to accelerate treatment discovery for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) using the power of AI.

In this 90-minute online session, our data partners, including Project MinE, Answer ALS, and ALS Compute - will showcase the unique genomic, multi-omic, and clinical datasets available to the Prize participants. You’ll gain insight into how these datasets were generated, what makes them valuable, and how they can support AI-driven therapeutic discovery.

The session will also cover practical guidance on accessing the data, navigating secure cloud platforms, and understanding eligibility and data use agreements.

What to expect:

• Live walkthroughs of each dataset’s structure, scale, and key features
• Guidance on how to access the data
• Introduction to cloud-based analysis environments (e.g., DNAnexus, Terra, ADDI Workbench)
• Q&A with data custodians and the Prize team
• Tips to get your team ready to apply

Who should attend:

AI researchers, bioinformaticians, computational biologists, neuroscientists, clinicians, drug discovery teams, and biotech innovators interested in tackling ALS through data-driven innovation.
