Mitochondrial diseases are a diverse group of genetic disorders that can disrupt cellular energy production and affect multiple organs.

This year’s theme: Putting Mito on the Map 💚

#PuttingMitoOnTheMap starts with people – speaking up, sharing info, elevating patient voices. We’re proud to support the advocacy groups across the globe who are working tirelessly to ensure mito is recognized. #WorldMitoWeek2026 #MitochondrialDisease #Biosky

#DidYouKnow: There are hundreds of #MitochondrialDiseases, many of which are individually rare. Collectively, approximately 1.5 million people worldwide live with mito. We’re focused on #MELAS. #WorldMitoWeek2026 #PuttingMitoOnTheMap #Biosky www.tisentotx.com/mito-disease...

We’re thrilled to see so many buildings lit up green for #MitochondrialDiseases tonight! This vibrant global display raises awareness, sparks important conversations, and shows support for the mito community. #WorldMitoWeek2026 #PuttingMitoOnTheMap @MitoAware #Biosky

Progress for #MitochondrialDisease depends on collaboration. That’s why we’re dedicated to listening to and partnering with patients, families, clinicians, advocates, and patient orgs. Together, we’re #PuttingMitoOnTheMap. #WorldMitoWeek2026 @MitoAware #Biosky

#MitochondrialDisease can affect any organ, at any age, with a wide range of symptoms, making it one of the most challenging conditions to recognize. But better awareness creates opportunities for meaningful and lasting change. @MitoAware #WorldMitoWeek2026 #PuttingMitoOnTheMap #Biosky

It’s #WorldMitoWeek2026! We’re energized by the opportunity to join the global advocacy community to raise awareness of these challenging diseases. This year we’re focused on #PuttingMitoOnTheMap, making mito more visible globally and connecting people across borders. #Biosky
