A timely and accurate diagnosis is a critical enabler for precise and personalized health care. However, barriers to rare disease diagnoses are especially steep for those from historically underserved communities, including low- and middle-income countries. The Undiagnosed Diseases Network International (UDNI) was launched in 2015 to help fill the knowledge gaps that impede diagnosis for rare diseases, and to foster the translation of research into medical practice, aided by active patient involvement.
