The study involves 105 participants, including healthy volunteers and patients with known or suspected rare diseases.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could improve diagnosis for people with rare genetic diseases who currently have no answers from standard genetic tests.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not lead to a new diagnostic tool, and results may not apply to all rare diseases.
