What do we do?
The ERN is a network of healthcare providers, each from different disciplines across the European Union who work together to provide specialised treatment and resources for patients with rare and complex conditions or diseases.
This network already covers a wide range of diseases including haematological diseases, bone disorders, immunodeficiency and childhood cancer.
Service Hours: Phones are attended between 9am and 5pm. A voicemail service is available outside these hours.
TUH is a dedicated expert centre for PSP, CBS & MSA. The Hospital is the ERN site in Ireland for cerebellar ataxia/HSP and atypical parkinsonian syndromes and genetic PD.
