The Symposium will be dedicated to the use of multi-omnics methods, including next-generation sequencing (NGS), in the diagnosis of rare diseases, such as also in discovering and describing new rare diseases. They will be discussed the possibility of personalized therapies in patients with selected rare neuronal channelopathies. Among the invited speakers there are representatives of centers associated with three European Reference Networks - ERN-RND, ERN-ITHACA, ERN-CRANIO.
