Mitochondrial Medicine Society Publications

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Join us with Dr. Sumit Parikh, Director of the Cleveland Clinic Neurogenetics, Metabolic and Mitochondrial Disease program, and past president of the Mitochondrial Medicine Society. Learn more about the 2014-2015 publications based on collaborations and consensus surveys completed by the Mitochondrial Medicine Society. The landmark series of publications is the first to address existing standards of care and most common approaches to diagnosis, use of supplements and symptom management by leaders in mitochondrial medicine around the US.

Key points:

  • Mitochondrial medicine’s complexity bring unique challenges to physicians
  • The practice of Mitochondrial Medicine has varied from provider-to-provider
  • Patients and families deserve uniformity in regards to diagnosis and treatment
  • The MMS Consensus Project was conceived with this goal in mind
