More than you can imagine. That’s the reality of rare diseases—while each one is uncommon, together, they impact over 300 million people worldwide. With over 6,000 different rare diseases, the need for awareness, research, and equitable access to treatment is greater than ever. This month, as we approach Rare Disease Day on 28 February, we join the call for policymakers to ensure that those affected by rare diseases receive the care and support they deserve. The global movement, launched by EURORDIS in 2008, continues to drive awareness and action in over 100 countries. At Momentum Pharma Ltd, we’re committed to supporting this cause and keeping these conversations at the forefront.   That’s why our next West Midlands & Borders Clinical Research Lunch Club, co-hosted by IAOCR - International Accrediting Organization for Clinical Research and Momentum Pharma, will also be a chance to reflect on the role of clinical research in driving innovation for rare conditions.
