“Join us in making the voice of rare diseases heard” is the slogan of Rare Disease Day 2016, a special day established by EURORDIS (http://www.rarediseaseday.org/). It takes place on the last day of February each year since 2008, to raise awareness amongst the general public and decision-makers about rare diseases and their impact on patients’ lives. This has also been one of the goals of Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases(OJRD), since its inception 10 years ago.
