One theme kept coming up throughout the discussions:
“Getting to know each other.”
Inclusive research starts with relationships, built on trust, transparency and mutual respect between patients, researchers, clinicians and industry partners.
#InclusionByDesign #RareDisease
Last week we hosted the @kingshealth.bsky.social Rare Disease Network PPIE event at @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social.
Patients, researchers, clinicians, charities and industry came together to discuss one key question:
How do we make rare disease research truly inclusive?
#RareDisease #PPIE
🚫 #ZeroDiscriminationDay comes at a perfect time following @geneticallianceuk.bsky.social's #RareDiseaseDay report which shows that people with rare conditions experience profound healthcare inequity, compounded by other discrimination throughout their journey.
