description In July and Aug 2014, a particular media phenomenon called 'Ice Bucket Challenge' (IBC) interested millions of people all over the world, with the aim of promoting awareness and gathering funds for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The ALS, also called Lou Gehrig disease, is a neurodegenerative fatal disorder which involves cerebral and spinal cord motor neurons in people between 40 and 70 years old. It is clinically characterized by a progressive paralysis which leads to respiratory failure and death within 3-5 years from the diagnosis. Here, Gualano et al discuss the possible factors which determined the IBC campaign and evaluate how and if social networks could be used to promote public health campaigns.
