30 million Americans live with a rare disease. Diagnosis takes six years on average—for some, it can take decades. Only 5% have an approved treatment. ARPA-H is changing the pace with RAPID—using AI, data, and scalable systems to diagnose rare diseases faster and support the development of new treatments.

Love being in US! One of the fun things while being here is to always clarify that I am from the country Georgia and not from the state Georgia :) Similar to allelic heterogeneity - same name but different countries #ACMGMtg23
Thanks for letting us know, country not state! #ACMGMtg23

Have you heard of the Face2Gene app which can help diagnose more than 4,000 different genetic conditions by recognizing particular facial features associated with them? 60% of medical geneticists & genetic counselors are already using the app in their practice. #digitalhealth

Voici à quoi ressemble l'application "#Face2Gene", une #application 📱 capable de reconnaître 1.000 maladies par reconnaissance faciale créée en 2014 par une start-up "#FDNA" 🏢.
