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.
