Brief Summary:
This study will try to understand the difference in brain structure between ALS patients and healthy people of similar age. ALS is a condition affecting the nervous system with disruption of the brain networks. This study aims to understand these disruptions and determine their significance in ALS.
Detailed Description:
Participants and healthy controls will be consented into the study. After consent, details including age, duration of disease, ALSFRS score, and grip strength will be collected. Participants will be trained to perform a grip and release task using a foam ball for 1 minute while inside an MRI scanner. Anatomical, functional and diffusion MRI sequences will be acquired during the scanning, and total scan time will be approximately 1 hour.
