ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how the sounds we make when we talk—our vocal patterns—can help identify rare syndromes and congenital disorders. The main goal is to create a system that can automatically recognize these vocal patterns linked to specific conditions. Researchers will collect and analyze voice recordings to better understand how different syndromes affect speech.

To participate, individuals aged between 1 and 74 years old with a confirmed diagnosis of one of the studied syndromes can join, but they will need permission from a parent or legal representative if they are minors. Participants should be in good health and not have any recent upper respiratory infections. If you decide to take part, you'll be helping researchers develop new ways to diagnose and understand rare diseases through voice analysis, which could lead to better support for patients in the future.
