Diseases (RHD), is led by Dr Mañú Pereira, head of the Rare Anemia Disorders research lab within the "CANCER Y
ENFERMEDADES HEMATOLOGICAS INFANTILES" group.
Our research strategy is focused on the development and validation of innovative methodological approaches for better
characterization of patients affected by rare anemia disorders according to their individual features to allow personal risk
