RE(ACT)x Switzerland: We Care for Rare

On 10 November 2016, the “RE(ACT)x Switzerland: We Care for Rare” brought together a group of motivated researchers and patients advocates to discuss about the creation of a Swiss Center for Therapeutics Discovery (SCTD) focused on rare diseases (RD).  The symposium organized by the BLACKSWAN Foundation on behalf of “Medicine Discovery & Delivery” Health2030 workgroup, will be probably remembered as the turning point for translational research on rare diseases in Switzerland and in Europe. The event was organized at Campus Biotech in Geneva under the patronage of ProRaris, the Swiss alliance of rare disease patients.

The objectives of the day were:

  • to understand the unmet medical need in rare diseases, listening to patients voices and researchers working in that domain and learn from successful projects that made it from the bench to the bedside,
  • to solidify the Swiss society and the Swiss scientific community around a common project for the creation of a Swiss Center for Therapeutic Discovery focused on rare diseases.
