The Ehlers-Danlos Society's Registry & Research Program Manager, Amelia, is at
@REDCapCon 2024 this week, the annual REDCap conference hosted by Johns Hopkins!
REDCap is the secure system that hosts our DICE EDS and HSD Global Registry and Repository, an important tool in collaborative research that allows
#EhlersDanlosSyndrome and
#HypermobilitySpectrumDisorder community members to complete surveys and share medical information to assist with research. The Registry also helps researchers to advance understanding of these conditions through use of the data and by sharing new surveys for
#Registry members to participate in.
The Ehlers-Danlos Society is a partner in the
#REDCap consortium which is made up of over 7,000 partners in 159 countries. This year, REDCap is celebrating 20 years of operation, and the conference is showcasing how its members (like us) are empowered by the software. People are attending from all around the world!
#Rarediseases are in the spotlight at the conference, with the keynote speakers discussing work at Johns Hopkins in pediatric rare diseases. Amelia was selected to present a poster about our registry, raising awareness about how it is accelerating research in
#EDS and
#HSD!
Special thanks to everyone who has joined the registry, and if you are not a member, you can join easily today and be a part of this incredible progress! Visit
