SamuelOjes / PatientsRegistryAPI

“Hack the Rare”, a hackathon to build open source software tools that will catalyze the development of treatments for rare devastating diseases affecting 400 million patients worldwide. This event is organized in collaboration with OpenTreatments Foundation.

Patients Registry API

The first goal for any rare disease is to identify other patients around the world diagnosed with this disease. There is strength in numbers in their ability to raise funds, understand the disease better, and attract researchers to work on the disease. This project enables a newly diagnosed patient to register themselves as a patient of the disease & to connect with other patients in same category.
