Traditional medical research models are unsuccessful when facing ultrarare diseases. It is necessary to explore and support other research models that overcome the restrictions that we find in rare and ultra rare diseases research. It is necessary to promote “collaborative models” between patients, or patients associations, and researchers. Through this alliance, this collaboration, we are building a conceptual framework, and we are working in the creation of a virtual platform that could be useful for exposing the hidden knowledge from those patients. Although we are working in one disease (the Lowe Syndrome), the novelty of our project is the design of a conceptual framework and a modular environment that will allow us to apply the same methodology to different diseases. From needs of researchers and patients, we set four main objectives: - Improving medical-scientific knowledge of rare diseases; - intervening on the psychological wellbeing of patients and caregivers with rare diseases; - promoting dissemination and awareness about rare diseases, specially through Internet, but also empowering patients and disseminators; - promoting sustainability of research projects on rare diseases, collaborating with patients and taking profit of all their potential.
