Three Treatment Paths — How RareLabs Tests Multiple Approaches at Once
When a family comes to RareLabs, one of the first things we explain is this: we don't put all our eggs in one basket. Rare disease research is inherently uncertain — no one can predict in advance which approach will yield the most promising results for any given condition.
From Your Cells to the Lab — How Personalized Disease Models Work
One of the most powerful tools in modern rare disease research is something that would have sounded like science fiction just twenty years ago: taking a patient's own cells and transforming them into a living, testable model of their disease in the laboratory. This technology — known as induced
What Is a Rare Disease — and Why Does Speed Matter?
A rare disease is any condition that affects fewer than 200,000 people in the United States. But the word "rare" can be deeply misleading. There are over 10,000 known rare diseases worldwide, and collectively they affect an estimated 400 million people globally — roughly 30 million in
