On Saturday, February 28th, 2026, enGenome will host the annual Run for Rare at Parco Lambro in Milan. This is an event to bring people together to raise awareness and show support for those living with rare diseases.

Why we run

More than 300 million people around the world live with a rare disease. For many, the journey to diagnosis is long, uncertain, and often isolating. Early diagnosis can be life-changing. It means earlier care, better support and renewed hope.

At enGenome, we’re committed to shortening that journey through advanced genomic tools that help clinicians reach a diagnosis faster and with greater accuracy. Run for Rare is our way of standing beside patients and families, and inviting our community to do the same.
