Why join the Mito Conference?

The conference will give an overall overview on the advances, challenges and potential opportunities in the field of mitochondrial medicine and research, both nationally and internationally.

For physicians and researchers, the Mito Conference will be a great opportunity for networking; for young investigators, it will be an excellent training opportunity; CME credits will be provided. For patients and families, it is the only place to find out more about mitochondrial diseases, to seek advice and to ask questions to experts.
