Show Notes

Viral infection is a major cause of morbidity in children with mitochondrial disease (MtD), and the COVID-19 pandemic represents an opportunity to understand host-pathogen interactions. This talk will summarize a number of recent research efforts to understand the impact of COVID-19 on the mitochondrial community.
