The corrected acknowledgements section is given below:


We would like to thank the Sattler Laboratory for suggestions and comments towards the manuscript. We would also like to thank all ALS patients and families that have contributed to this research via postmortem brain tissue donations. Specifically, we would like to thank Doug Clough for assistance with data analysis and insightful discussions. We further thank the Target ALS Human Postmortem Tissue Core, New York Genome Center for Genomics of Neurodegenerative Disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Association and TOW Foundation for providing access to their postmortem patient tissue samples collection. We thank both the Target ALS Consortium and the New York Genome Center for access to their RNA sequencing database. In particular, we would like to thank Drs. Lyle Ostrow, Hemali Phatnani and Robert Bowser. We would also like to thank Drs. Sylvia Perez and Elliott Mufson for generously providing us with AD patient postmortem tissue samples. Further thanks go to Dr. Stella Dracheva for helpful discussions throughout this project.
