UMDF Mitochondrial Medicine Pacific Regional Symposium
The United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation and University of California San Diego School of Medicine have joined efforts to sponsor and organize a CME-accredited regional symposium. Mitochondrial diseases are more common than previously recognized and mitochondrial pathophysiology is now a recognized part of many disease processes, including heart disease, cancer, AIDS and diabetes. There have been significant advances in the molecular genetics, proteomics, epidemiology and clinical aspects of mitochondrial pathophysiology. This conference is directed toward the clinician interested in all aspects of mitochondrial medicine.

Activity Name:
UMDF Mitochondrial Medicine Pacific Regional Symposium
Description:
The United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation and University of California San Diego School of Medicine have joined efforts to sponsor and organize a CME-accredited regional symposium. Mitochondrial diseases are more common than previously recognized and mitochondrial pathophysiology is now a recognized part of many disease processes, including heart disease, cancer, AIDS and diabetes. There have been significant advances in the molecular genetics, proteomics, epidemiology and clinical aspects of mitochondrial pathophysiology. This conference is directed toward the clinician interested in all aspects of mitochondrial medicine.
Course Objectives:
At the end of the program, attendees will have an in-depth understanding of the following areas:
Explain the basic science of mitochondrial function and how dysfunction can lead to mitochondrial disease.
Illustrate the symptoms and recognize the ?red-flag? symptoms of mitochondrial disease.
Demonstrate how to begin a mitochondrial evaluations.
Explain the issue of certainty of diagnosis.
Explain the concepts of primary and secondary mitochondrial disorders.
Summarize the goals of therapy and to present the current treatments available based on the most recent studies presented in the peer-reviewed medical literature.
Explain the available diagnostic testing, based on mitochondrial function, and to review new and expanding opportunities including next gen sequencing.
Recognize the link between mitochondrial function and dysfunction to common disorders such as autism.
Recognize the role of exercise testing in diagnosis and management of patients with mitochondrial disorder.
