Dwarna was created to help foster collaboration between medical researchers and clinical communities that focus on genetics. This is an area that is growing every day and that deals with new ways to treat disease.

Working mostly with entities that work within genetics research – biobanks, specialised disease clinics, university researchers, and the pharmaceutical industry amongst others – Dwarna encourages long-term thinking. We know that the work we do today can help cure diseases with genetic links, like diabetes, ALS, thalassemia, and Alzheimers amongst others.

We encourage transparency and clarity, providing all information needed to enable anyone interested to be fully informed prior to participating. We also foster a spirit of collegiality between all stakeholders.

Our mission will span decades. We know that there will be no overnight wins and no medical magic bullets. We are in this for the long-term, understanding that the patients who benefit from our work could be two or three generations down the line.

Our success depends on the participation of the public. As more people show generosity and do a little bit to contribute, we stand a greater chance of success.
