The NLET Mitochondria Core is dedicated to the organization of mitochondrial science, medicine and health. Mitochondria, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and the mitochondrial-nuclear axis are part of the next revolution in medicine and health, following the genomics and microbiome revolutions. www.MitoWorld.org is a web-hub and media property covering the field of mitochondrial medicine, health and science. www.MITOS.Global is an evolving networked lab model that will use AI and computational modeling to better understand how a more comprehensive understanding of mitochondria can contribute solving complex, persistent problems of disease and health.
Overview
MitoWorld ™ is a web platform, or portal, that brings together the latest research and emerging fields associated with mitochondrial research, patient support, health resources, and the growing understanding of the importance of healthy energy production in medicine and health.
The platform aims to make more public the researchers and medical practitioners around the world who view mitochondria as a new lens for medicine and health, taking its place alongside DNA research.
Mitochondria represent a significant advancement not only in the recognition, research, treatment, and search for cures for mitochondrial diseases and dysfunction but also in the way we view how life forms operate and how medicine and health can be understood from the perspective of the tiny mitochondria to the cells, tissues, organs, and the systemic operation of the human body (and other life forms). This discovery is similar to the discovery of fundamental particles in physics.
With each passing month, more intractable mitochondrial diseases are being researched, and many more common diseases and conditions are being studied through the lens of mitochondria, from cancer to obesity, and beyond. Mitochondria research is becoming a large business in the pursuit of health, longevity, mental and physical fitness. Within a few years, what currently seems distant and unknown about mitochondria will become commonplace.
MitoWorld ™ is evolving, and your involvement is welcome.
