Funded Activity Summary

Mitochondrial diseases comprise the most common diagnostic group amongst neuromuscular and neurogenetic diseases, but are not well known in the community, with no established standards of management. The Study aims to devise strategies to deliver better care for patients with mitochondrial diseases, from their screening and diagnosis, continued monitoring and prognostication, to the potential treatment and promotion of a better management paradigm; as well as facilitation of ongoing research into the management of patients with these diseases.
