As #GlobalPorphyriaDay comes to a close, we want to extend our sincere thanks to the advocacy organizations, patients, families, and healthcare providers who continue to shape progress for people living with porphyrias like EPP and XLP.
Today, we recognize #GlobalPorphyriaDay, a moment to raise awareness of the porphyria community and the people impacted. At Disc, we’re committed to advancing understanding of EPP, including XLP. Visit porphyria.org for resources and to learn more.
