There are over 7,000 rare diseases affecting over 350 million patients around the world – and each patient is unique, with a different genetic makeup and individual medical needs. Join moderator Ben Legg and rare disease expert Prof. Peter Bauer as they explore the challenges and successes of the rare disease community. Listen in to get an inside look into rare diseases as we embark on a mission for life-changing answers.
Genetic testing is a powerful tool that provides individuals with insight into their genetic makeup and potential health risks.
