Researchers are looking for young adults ages 15-25 with rare genetic disabilities to join a study about getting jobs and education. The study will follow 300 participants and examine the challenges these young people face when trying to go to school, get internships, or find work. Many young people with rare genetic diseases struggle with these opportunities because of their condition and lack of support.
WHY IT MATTERSThis trial directly addresses employment and education barriers that young adults with rare genetic disabilities face — areas where they typically have the fewest resources and support.

Researchers completed a study testing whether an AI tool called Legit.Health Plus can help doctors better diagnose rare and complicated skin conditions. The tool was tested with 15 healthcare providers to see if it could reduce the gap between what general doctors and skin specialists diagnose. This matters because conditions like Generalized Pustular Psoriasis and Hidradenitis Suppurativa can be missed or misdiagnosed, delaying proper treatment.
WHY IT MATTERSThis completed trial tested an AI diagnostic tool specifically designed to help primary care doctors accurately identify rare skin conditions like Generalized Pustular Psoriasis and Hidradenitis Suppurativa, which are often missed in non-specialist settings.

Researchers completed a study following 137 patients with Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD), a rare immune system disorder. The study compared patients who received a bone marrow transplant (a procedure to replace damaged blood-forming cells) to patients who received standard medical care instead. This research helps doctors understand which treatment approach works best for CGD patients.
WHY IT MATTERSThis completed analysis provides real-world evidence comparing bone marrow transplant outcomes to standard care for CGD patients, which can help your doctor recommend the most effective treatment strategy for your specific situation.
