RE(ACT) Congress and IRDiRC Conference
March 5 - March 7
Continuing the legacy of the esteemed IRDiRC Conference series (now in its 6th edition) and the RE(ACT) Congress series (celebrating its 8th edition), this conference brings together visionary leaders, distinguished experts, and emerging talents from diverse scientific domains, converging to unveil groundbreaking research, foster dialogue, and shape policies crucial to rare disease research.
Since its inception in 2012, the RE(ACT) Congress, pioneered by the BLACKSWAN Foundation, has catalyzed scientific collaboration and advancement in rare and orphan diseases. Meanwhile, IRDiRC, established in April 2011 under the auspices of the European Commission and the US National Institutes of Health, has been pivotal in galvanizing global cooperation among researchers, funders, and patient advocacy groups within a multinational framework.
This joint venture of the 8th RE(ACT) Congress and the 6th IRDiRC Conference, in partnership with the European Rare Diseases Research Alliance (ERDERA), Eurordis (the European Alliance of Patient Organizations), symbolizes a unified commitment to surmounting rare disease challenges through collective action and shared knowledge.
