Emil Kakkis

Emil Kakkis M.D. Ph.D. (born 1960) is an American medical geneticist known for his work to develop treatments for ultra rare disorders. He is the President and Founder of the Kakkis EveryLife Foundation and Chief Executive Officer and President at Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc.
== Professional background ==
Kakkis began his work at Harbor-UCLA working with minimal funding and support to develop an enzyme replacement therapy (Aldurazyme) for the rare disorder Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS I). The struggle to get the therapy translated from a successful canine model to patients succeeded due to the critical financial support of a patient organization formed by Mark and Jeanne Dant for their son Ryan, called the Ryan Foundation.〔()〕
Aldurazyme development was later supported by BioMarin and eventually their partner Genzyme leading to U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in 2003. During his tenure at BioMarin, Kakkis guided the development and approval of two more treatments for rare disorders, MPS VI and PKU and has contributed to the initiation of seven other treatment programs for rare disorders, three of which are now in clinical development.
Kakkis is board certified in both Pediatrics and Medical Genetics. He graduated from Pomona College, magna cum laude, received combined MD and PhD degrees from the UCLA Medical Scientist Program and received the Bogen prize for his research. He completed a Pediatrics residency and Medical Genetics Training Fellowship at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center. He became an assistant professor of Pediatrics at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center from 1993 to 1998 where he initiated the enzyme therapy program for MPS I.
