About

The IMDO Foundation Board is the governing body for the International Medicine and Disease Olympiad (IMDO), a prestigious global competition for high school students. The foundation ensures the annual execution of the Olympiad, maintaining fair and transparent processes for team selection across participating countries. Its primary mission is to foster interest in the medical field among young minds. The Olympiad challenges students on their knowledge of human medicine and diseases. It is designed to test both fundamental medical concepts and critical problem-solving skills, simulating real-world scenarios that medical professionals encounter. The competition is held online to ensure accessibility and affordability for students worldwide, with qualification for Indian students occurring through national selection rounds. Established to recognize and reward the most talented high school problem-solvers in medicine, the IMDO provides a platform for students to showcase their abilities on an international stage.
