Today is Rare Disease Day and itβs a day to raise awareness for the 300 million people in the world with over 6000 rare diseases. If you or a loved one have a rare disease write it in the comments and make it seen. #RareDiseaseDay #RareDisease #allontheboard
When a grant goes down..... Or a paper is rejected..... It is worth remembering why and for who we are doing this research..... "There are many such kids and they are all waiting for a magic pill" π #RareDisease #RareDiseaseDay2022 #SkeletalGenetics #RareDiseaseDay
