We're super proud to see our study showing utility of proteomics in ultra-rapid variant prioritisation for suspected mito and other rare diseases out in Genome Medicine (rdcu.be/endwE). Too many amazing collabs to thank, so here are the big ones @daniellahock.bsky.social @thorburnmito.bsky.social!

Cutting the diagnosis journey for children born with rare genetic diseases

Families can wait years for a diagnosis of a rare genetic disorder, but a new test can provide answers in days for a better understanding of the condition and potentially earlier treatment, finds new...

Our national study that shows that people with mitochondrial disease (mito) can be diagnosed by genomic testing of blood. This study has a direct impact on the mito community in Australia by improving the diagnosis accuracy, timeliness, and experience.

Most patients with mitochondrial disease can be diagnosed via genomic sequencing

Diagnosis of mitochondrial diseases has often required invasive muscle biopsies, but a national study shows
