Multidisciplinary approaches to tackle rare diseases with personalized medicine (diagnostics and therapies) (NET-RARE) 

Rare diseases are a diverse group of disorders with low prevalence, but if we combined all patients, they would form the world’s 3rd largest population. These diseases pose significant challenges for patients and healthcare providers due to their chronic, debilitating nature and limited prevalence, resulting in restricted sample availability and genetic variability. Many rare diseases … Read more
