Akshat Jain: Elevating Equity in Diagnosis, Care, and Research on World Rare Disease Day 2026
Akshat Jain, Hematology Pediatric Workforce Task Force at American Society of Hematology, shared on LinkedIn:
”Today is World Rare Disease Day 2026 — a moment to champion equity in diagnosis, care, and research for the 300 million people living with rare conditions.
This year’s theme, ‘Elevate Equity in Every Action’, reminds us that policy, science, and clinical practice must include rare disease voices from the start.
