Welcome to the North American Mitochondrial Disease Consortium
Join Our Research Studies
Mitochondrial diseases present a challenge because they are probably the most diverse human disorders at every level: clinical, biochemical, and genetic. Although severity varies, by and large these are progressive and often crippling disorders. The NAMDC, working closely with the United Mitochondrial Foundation (UMDF), is working to address these difficult issues.
