Goals & Impacts
Unify knowledge, resources and expertise
ERDERA brings under one roof a broad range of high-value services, resources and cross-disciplinary expertise to support rare disease research projects across Europe, from planning and design to efficient execution.
Boost clinical research with and for patients
Enabling every consenting patient living with a rare disease to be findable and enrolled in a suitable clinical study that matches their needs and preferences is a core goal in ERDERA.
