Our work with SURF1 research
Mutations in the SURF1 gene prevent mitochondria from producing enough energy for cells in the body to function normally, leading to a rare genetic disease called Leigh syndrome. The condition is characterized by a progressive loss of mental and movement abilities and eventually leads to vision, renal, cardiac and respiratory complications. SURF1 Leigh syndrome typically presents during infancy or early childhood, and often results in death within a few years. There is currently no targeted treatment or cure for SURF1 Leigh syndrome.
The latest on our research: We are jumpstarting our SURF1 program in partnership with the Cure Mito Foundation to accelerate research for the condition. We welcome all patients and caregivers interested in participating and spreading the word to the SURF1 community.

Check out our FAQsOur values & principles.
1Patients own their data
We believe that the only way to keep data accessible to the researchers who need it is by enabling patients to own and control their own data. Patients decide for themselves whether they want to privately and securely contribute to research, rather than having the decision made on their behalf.
2We protect patient privacy
We abide by a strict research consent and privacy policy. We only share de-identified data with researchers, foundations, and therapeutic companies with patients’ consent. Protecting the privacy of patients and ensuring the security of their information is our highest priority.
3Researchers gain access
We aim to make useful data accessible to all researchers who have legitimate research questions or research programs. For academic research, we offer access without charge. We take research ethics seriously, and we have policies in place to ensure that research is conducted with integrity.
4Inclusiveness in the community
We don’t like to take sides—we give all members of the community the option to get involved. Success in rare disease research takes a village and we always welcome additional collaborators who can advance and benefit from the mission.
5Driving forward therapeutic development
Our primary mission is to accelerate drug development, so we prioritize generating insights specifically relevant to therapeutic research. We invest deeply in quality, security, and compliance to make this a reality.
