Motor neurone disease (MND) was first identified as a distinct condition in the late 19th century, with the term "amyotrophic lateral sclerosis" (ALS) introduced by French neurologist Jean-Martin Charcot in 1869. Charcot's work laid the foundation for understanding the disease, which affects motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord. Since then, research has continued to evolve, enhancing our understanding of MND and its variants.
