The 2nd International Conference on Clinical Research Networks (CRNs), organised by the European Rare Diseases Research Alliance (ERDERA), Rare Diseases International (RDI), and IRDiRC, brought together the global rare disease community to explore innovative solutions for advancing clinical research, with a dedicated focus on strengthening capacity in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
Held in a hybrid format, the conference created a dynamic space for collaboration among researchers, clinicians, patient advocates, and policymakers, fostering dialogue on how stronger clinical research networks can accelerate progress and improve outcomes for people living with rare diseases worldwide.
