COMBINEDBrain: Consortium for Outcome Measures and Biomarkers for Neurological Disorders
Where patient advocacy, academic researchers, clinicians, and industry work together to accelerate rare disease research
Our Mission
COMBINEDBrain is devoted to speeding the path to clinical treatments for people with rare genetic neurological disorders by pooling effort, studies, and data.
Our Structure
COMBINEDBrain is a nonprofit consortium led by patient advocacy foundations and supported by clinicians, researchers, and pharmaceutical partners working to develop treatments for rare neurological disorders. We connect more than 130 rare neurological disorder communities across key sectors—patient advocacy, academic researchers and clinicians, and industry—through shared research infrastructure.
Through structured initiatives such as multi-stakeholder roundtables and cross-disease research programs, COMBINEDBrain brings these sectors together in ways that do not typically occur in traditional research models. This enables direct collaboration, shared insights, and coordinated research across disorders.
COMBINEDBrain also develops and operates shared research infrastructure—including biobanking, data integration platforms, and expert access programs—that support study execution and accelerate therapeutic development. Partners gain access to a broader network of collaborators, datasets, and research opportunities, while contributing to the collective through shared data, expertise, and resources.
What We DoCOMBINEDBrain develops and operates shared research infrastructure that supports collaborative rare disease studies across patient advocacy, academic researchers and clinicians, and industry—integrating biospecimens, clinical data, molecular profiling, and expert-driven research support.
