Support and Honor Rare Disease Day 2016 with Veristat
Rare Disease Day calls attention to the public health issues associated with rare diseases, which affect nearly 30 million Americans and countless others around the world.
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts joins a coalition of organizations recognizing the day, being coordinated by the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD), which includes patient organizations, professional societies, government agencies, medical researchers, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, and patients.
Locally, MassBio, The MGH Center for Rare Neurologic Diseases, The MGH Frontotemporal Disorders Unit, member companies, patient groups, patients and legislators have joined together and coordinated an event to recognize Rare Disease Day.
Please join us to recognize Rare Disease Day and the research being done in Massachusetts to treat and cure rare disease. Together, we can raise awareness of rare disease.
