NAVIAUX LAB

The Naviaux Lab is focused on the study of mitochondria, and their role in energy production, metabolism, and cellular defense. As part of the Mitochondrial and Metabolic Disease Center at UCSD, the lab has helped hundreds of patients with mitochondrial and metabolic concerns over the last 20 years... The Naviaux Laboratory is devoted to exploring new perspectives in chronic diseases that have not been traditionally associated with genetics and metabolism. These discoveries have grown naturally from the care, diagnosis, treatment, and research to help children with mitochondrial disease. The lab has recently expanded to the study of several neurologic, psychiatric, and autoimmune disorders. These include Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), Major and Bipolar Depression, Suicide risk, Lyme Disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Primary Sclerosing..
