Summary
Mitochondrial disease (MD) is the most common inherited metabolic condition. MD can be diagnosed by using whole genome sequencing (WGS) and enables treatment and accurate family planning. We will create a web-base platform to support the diagnosis and treatment of patients with or suspected to have MD. Using a custom-built web-based platform, telemedicine and automated software we will integrate care by primary care givers and MD experts to deliver a precise genetic diagnosis to our MD patients.
