Genomic map
of rare diseases
This is a genomic map of 3,039
rare diseases with genetic
causes. The spiral graphic
represents the human genome.
It’s formed of 2,071 segments,
each containing 1.5m DNA
base pairs. The green dots
show where the genetic
mutations are located for each
of these diseases.
Inspired by the work of

for rare diseases
There are over 7,000 rare diseases. Only 5%
have an approved treatment. Using traditional
drug discovery methods, it will take a very long
time to find treatments for all these diseases.
Here at Healx, we are changing that.
