Screen4Care

Screen4Care offers an innovative research approach to accelerate the diagnosis of rare diseases, based on two key pillars: genetic newborn screening and digital technologies. People living with rare diseases often face an arduous journey to diagnosis. They endure an average of eight years of inconclusive consultations and possible misdiagnosis, leading to ineffective treatments and inefficient use of healthcare resources. The diagnostic odysseys and uncertainty about symptoms experienced continue to place a great burden on undiagnosed patients, their families, caregivers, physicians, and society as a whole.
