Rare disease funding often has niche funders with dedicated programmes (CZI Rare As One, Chan Zuckerberg Biohubs, rare-disease-specific charities). Broader funders (ERC, Wellcome, Horizon Europe) include rare disease as one pillar of their health portfolios. Scope ranges from patient registries and natural-history studies to mechanism research and gene/cell therapy development.
