2023 is indeed a noteworthy year. As you will read in this issue, it marks the 40th anniversary of the landmark Orphan Drug Act and the formation of the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD). 2023 also marks the 30th anniversary of Neurology Reviews, the parent publication of the Rare Neurological Disease Special Report. While Neurology Reviews covers rare disease news throughout the year (see our Rare Disease Roundup in this issue), it is in our annual supplement where our rare disease news coverage and our partnership with NORD truly shines.

Glenn Williams

In this issue we take pride in taking a deeper look at some of the rare neurological diseases that have made headlines as well as the therapeutic advances and research breakthroughs that continue to benefit patients and the rare disease community as a whole. While I would prefer to humbly serve the rare disease community through our news coverage and educational efforts, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that our 2022 Rare Neurological Disease Special Report won a Silver Regional Award in the category of annual supplement in the American Society of Business Publication Editors (Azbee) yearly competition. With that moment of bragging aside, I invite you to read this year’s issue, and I thank you for the success that this supplement has enjoyed since it launched in 2015.
