February 2023
Researchers, clinicians, families and companies came together to create the N1C based on the core principle of sharing learnings to advance the field of individualized medicine as safely and efficiently as possible. Collaboration and sharing were at the heart of the effort that made milasen possible, and that collaborative approach will be necessary to make the individualized medicine approach routine worldwide and bring genetic treatments to the patients that deserve them.
We are building databases to enable this type of data exchange, and we are signing data sharing agreements with institutions and companies around the world. Now, we are announcing the launch of an open letter -- the Data Sharing Pledge for Orphan Therapies -- to the entire rare disease community to affirm support for this critical commitment.
YOU can help!
Data Sharing Pledge for Orphan Therapies
Sign our pledge and support the fundamental step of transparently sharing data in rare disease:
Data Sharing Agreement
Sign the Data Sharing Agreement (DSA) to contribute and access data shared among participating institutions for research and educational purposes.
Data Sharing Seminar
Join our Seminar on February 27 (below) to learn more about how together, we can learn and improve from each other for the benefit of the patients who need us most.
Upcoming Seminars
Sign up now for our seminars coming up this month hosted on Mondays, 10:30-11:30am US ET:
