ECRD - Submit your poster abstract by 31 March!

ECRD
The ECRD is recognised globally as the largest, patient-led rare disease policy event in which collaborative dialogue, learning and conversation takes place, forming the groundwork to shape goal-driven rare disease policies and allow for important and innovative discussions on a national and an international level to take place.
Leading, inspiring and engaging all stakeholders to take action, the Conference is an unrivalled opportunity to network and exchange invaluable knowledge with over 1500 stakeholders in the rare disease community – patient advocates, policy makers, researchers, clinicians, healthcare professionals, healthcare industry representatives, academics, payers, regulators and Member State representatives.
The next ECRD will take place fully online from 27 June to 1 July 2022.

Poster abstracts submissions for the ECRD 2022 are now open until 31st March 2022.

CPMS CASE DISCUSSIONS

Twitter_ERN_EN_2017_1
„In CPMS, I have contributed on both sides, first as an expert and also by presenting a clinical case. I have already used the previous CPMS, and the new one is more user-friendly. Preparing a clinical case for the current CPMS takes about the same amount of time as for other types of meetings.” – Juan Dario Ortigoza Escobar, Barcelona

Online case discussions jour fix
Recently, regular Online Case Discussions were added to the ERN-RND activities. Any clinician from the ERN-RND network is welcome to join, contribute to the discussion and learn from the approaches of their colleagues.
