Who WE ARE
With an increasing number of people and groups sharing common goals and working on common activities, it became clear that more could be achieved by working together than each group working alone.
The Bardet-Biedl Syndrome International Federation was created to serve as the central body for a network of national associations and other BBS patient support groups.
Our OBJECTIVES
The main objective of Bardet-Biedl Syndrome International is to create a platform for collaboration between national associations, support groups and networks, people with BBS and their families, and researchers and professionals working on Bardet-Biedl Syndrome. In more detail, the objectives of Bardet-Biedl Syndrome International are as follows :
