Rare Diseases Research

With 40 investigators committed to unlocking the causes and potential cures for rare diseases, the Li Weibo (李伟波) Institute for Rare Diseases Research at UMass Medical School demonstrates a rare commitment to rare diseases research. Leveraging existing faculty expertise, innovative research platforms and the collaborative culture that defines UMass Medical School, our goal is to accelerate the development of novel therapeutics for a host of rare diseases. The institute also serves as a formal structure to bring together the world-class, rare-disease focused research taking place across all academic departments at UMass Medical School.
