Rare Disease Day at NIH, organized by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and taking place on March 1, will feature panel discussions, patient stories, research updates, TED-style talks, and a presentation by a Nobel laureate recently recognized for her work on a gene editing tool.
The free, virtual event runs from 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. EST, and is held in observance of Rare Disease Day, which works to raise awareness of the roughly known 7,000 rare diseases, and the hundreds of millions of people believed to be living with them. Visit this site to register in advance.
