SUMMARY:4th Annual Markets and Markets Orphan Drugs and Rare Diseases Conference
DESCRIPTION:SAVE THE DATE\n\n\nWith the enforcement of the 1983 Orphan Drug Act (ODA)\, manufacturers are obliged to scale production to treat rare/orphan diseases\, leading to a drastic advancement in the landscape of orphan drugs. Novel therapies aimed at treating these uncommon diseases are paramount to fulfilling the unmet needs of patients. \n\nThe present-day challenges\, including constrained resources\, disease severity\, limited patient access\, and a lack of available knowledge in rare diseases\, necessitate the discovery of innovative solutions to hasten orphan drug development. \nThe 4th Annual MarketsandMarkets Orphan Drugs and Rare Diseases Conference\, to be held on October 9–10 at Ibis London Earls Court Hotel & ILEC Conference Centre\, aims to provide a valuable and broad platform to discuss recent advances in the development of life-saving therapies\, critical issues\, and strategies to enhance orphan drug development in near future. The conference will bring together scientists\, researchers\, entrepreneurs\, academicians\, medical officials\, and technologists across the globe to discuss the newest findings in the areas of rare diseases and orphan drugs\, helping to shape present and upcoming challenges in drug analysis. It gives participants the chance to interact with industry peers and participate in this scientific conference while staying informed about the most recent developments in the study of rare diseases. \n\nevents.marketsandmarkets.com

SUMMARY:Hampton Court Half Marathon
DESCRIPTION:‘Ten amazing humans have signed up to complete the Hampton Court half marathon on March 20th 2022 in support of Arthur’s Quest\, most of whom are new to running. This means a merciless training regime throughout the depths of UK winter\, blisters\, chapped lips\, frosty fingers and windburned cheeks. Why are they putting themselves through all that? \nArthur is 5 years old and suffers from a rare neurological condition known only by the gene code SLC6A1. This condition causes a rare form of epilepsy which is extremely hard to treat\, autism\, muscle weakness\, learning disability\, speech and language delay/difficulty\, behavioural changes and regression and the children require speech therapy\, Physio\, Occupational Therapy\, specialist school provision and endless appointments. The genetic change was found in 2015 and Arthur was diagnosed in 2018. Arthur’s parents tested negative for the gene\, and despite that\, his baby sister was diagnosed age 1 in 2020. It has taken a year of falling over from drop seizures\, facial injuries\, a lost tooth and several medication changes to finally get some control of her seizures with a cocktail of anti epileptic drugs. There are currently hundreds of children diagnosed across the globe with this condition\, and more get diagnosed every day. Scientists and doctors have taken interest in the speed at which people are being diagnosed\, and the spectrum of disabilities experienced by the sufferers. The studies done on the condition to date estimate the condition to affect 1:3500 births\, and is the 10th cause of autism and 6th cause of epilepsy. \nParents have rallied together and in the last 4 years\, they have work tirelessly to raise money to fund research for better treatments and a cure\, and it is working. Data collection and research to treat and cure this disease is taking place at UT Southwestern\, University of Pennsylvania\, Uplifting Athletes\, Gladstone institutes\, University of California at San Francisco\, Collaborations pharmaceuticles\, Cyclia\, University of Colorado Boulder\, and Vanderbilt University. We currently have 12 children on a drug trial in the US and Europe using a repurposing study for a drug already taken by children for a completely different condition\, so far the results are good. These children and young people and their families are suffering on a daily basis. Just when they think things are improving\, the children regress and the work starts all over again. A cure cannot come soon enough! This is not shooting in the dark\, the science is already happening\, the contacts have already been made\, but what they do need is money to keep it going\, to reach the end goal\, before irreversible neurological damage sets in. \nSo come out and support the team\, donate to this amazing cause\, warm the runners up with your kindness and your generosity. \nIt will be appreciated more than you could know’. \nWant to know more?

SUMMARY:Tonbridge Half Marathon Day
DESCRIPTION:Today was Tonbridge half marathon day and it started off tipping it down\, it was not looking good\, but just in time the sun came out and the rain stopped. \nThe team were in good spirits despite some nerves for the novices.

A truly great result. Celebrations were had post run at the Poacher & Partridge. \nThe team raised to date £2\,400 for arthursquest.org all of which went to research for the gene therapy needed to cure Arthur’s rare disorder at UT Southwestern. \nA huge thank you to the lovelies that ran for us today.
