International Conference on Rare and Undiagnosed Diseases

Wilhelm Foundation has organized 13 International Conferences on Rare and Undiagnosed Diseases in collaboration with Dr. Gahl, the host country's doctors and UDNI. The most recent Conference was the 13th Conference, taking place on September 5-7, 2024 in Seoul South Korea.

Conference's primary goal is to spread awareness of the Undiagnosed Diseases Program (UDP) and Undiagnosed Diseases Network International (UDNI) to get more specialists to help solve the undiagnosed diseases. Another very important feature of the congresses is that the specialists address one of their unresolved diseases and ask the participants for help in solving the mystery, which is the Wilhelm Foundation's intention with the World Congresses.

Eight people are standing in front of nearly 300 people seated in an auditorium.
