Basic and translational research in rare diseases in low- and middle-income countries: challenges and solutions.
In this document, we discuss the main difficulties faced by investigators in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and propose potential solutions. Challenges include the scarcity of experts in rare disorders, higher costs of supplies, underfunding, and limited patient advocacy groups. Establishing collaborations among patient advocacy groups, governments, investigators, and other stakeholders to create action plans can address many of these issues and promote research into rare diseases.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Community Genetics is an international forum for research in the ever-expanding field of community genetics, the art and science of applying medical genetics to human communities for the benefit of their individuals.
Community genetics comprises all activities which identify persons at increased genetic risk and has an interest in assessing this risk, in order to enable those at risk to make informed decisions. Community genetics services thus encompass such activities as genetic screening, registration of genetic conditions in the population, routine preconceptional and prenatal genetic consultations, public education on genetic issues, and public debate on related ethical issues.
The Journal of Community Genetics has a multidisciplinary scope. It covers medical genetics, epidemiology, genetics in primary care, public health aspects of genetics, and ethical, legal, social and economic issues. Its intention is to serve as a forum for community genetics worldwide, with a focus on low- and middle-income countries.
The journal features original research papers, reviews, short communications, program reports, news, and correspondence. Program reports describe illustrative projects in the field of community genetics, e.g., design and progress of an educational program or the protocol and achievement of a gene bank. Case reports describing individual patients are not accepted.
