Are you a primary or substitute contact for your reference centre (RC)? You should’ve received a link to a survey from EuRREB registries (EuRRECa and EuRR-Bone). Patient registries are key in rare disease research, and knowing more about the characteristics of your centre will help provide a better understanding of the data gathered in the registries. This survey is addressed to Endo-ERN/ERN BOND representatives. If your centre has both a paediatric and adult representative each of you will receive a request to complete the survey. This survey will take you approximately 15 minutes to complete.
