The so-called "rare diseases" do not receive adequate study and research attention from the scientific community and pharmaceutical industry. Many of these diseases occur in children and require continuous diagnostic and therapeutic efforts to improve the quality of life of affected children and to minimize the socio-economic impact on families and health system. In the Programme Area already exist consolidated clinical and scientific skills, especially in the cross-border axis between the IRCCS Burlo Garofolo of Trieste and the Pediatric clinic of the University of Ljubljana who already cooperate on research on some rare diseases such as immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. However, the following are still missing: a) Patient-centered diagnostic methods capable of defining specific individual pathological profiles and targeted treatments. b) A widespread knowledge throughout the territory on diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities in this sector. c) Efficient tools for knowledge /research results sharing, especially towards general practitioners, hospital doctors and patient associations. The project CATTEDRA intends to address these shortcomings by bringing together clinical centers, research centers and companies. (English)
