Massive global effort launches to map rare genetic disease

This international study is gathering health information from thousands of people with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD), a rare genetic condition that affects the lungs, sinuses, and ears. By combining data from medical centers worldwide, researchers aim to better understand how the disease progresses, what symptoms are most common, and how treatments affect patients over time. The goal is to create a clearer picture of PCD to help improve future care.
