The Department of Neurology at the University Hospital in Krakow, Poland is committed to the diagnosis, treatment, and research of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We run a dedicated multidisciplinary outpatient clinic, providing comprehensive care to patients with ALS, and actively participate in clinical and observational studies, including multicenter trials. Our department is also a member of the European Reference Network for Rare Neurological Diseases (ERN-RND), further strengthening our expertise and collaboration in the field of rare neurological disorders.
