Biomedica at MENA: The %%largest congress%% for rare diseases
From May 16th to 19th, 2024, our team participated in the MENA Congress for Rare Diseases, held at the Beach Rotana in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The event unites diverse stakeholders committed to advancing rare disease care across the Middle East and North African (MENA) region.
Over 140 speakers, including more than 50 international experts from 20 different countries, shared their insights during the four-day conference. They gave the most up to date knowledge in various fields related to rare disease including diagnostics, therapeutics, research, achievements, challenges, and opportunities.
“Each patient’s journey is a unique chapter in the book of %%human health%%, and it is our duty to read it with %%empathy, curiosity%%, and unwavering %%commitment%%.”
