Mitochondria act at the interface of numerous processes critical for cellular function and organismal health. Long recognized as the powerhouses of the cell, mitochondria are emerging as hubs for cellular metabolism, redox balance, signalling, gene expression, detoxification, and ion homeostasis. Mitochondrial maintenance is critical for proper development and function of cells and tissues, and mitochondrial dysfunction underlies numerous disease processes ranging from severe childhood mitochondrial disorders, to heart disease, neurodegenerative disorders, cancer, and aging itself. This conference will bring together scientists and clinicians with expertise in a breadth of mitochondrial biology to explore topics at the interface of basic and translational biology. Mitochondrial basic mechanisms of organelle regulation, mitochondrial mechanisms of disease, cutting edge technologies, and interventional strategies will be emphasized in interactive scientific sessions.
Take advantage of this fantastic opportunity for students! Fully paying 'single' or 'shared' registrants can bring a student for only $1,195. Unfortunately, Postdocs are not eligible. Both registration packages include; accommodation for the 23, 24, 25 February 2024 (on a shared basis for students) and a food and beverage package for the conference period. Once registered, please contact Rosie Johnson to obtain a special registration link for your student.

Mitochondria function at the intersection of many important areas of biology and biomedicine, but there are limited opportunities for people studying different areas of biology where mitochondria are important (aging, neurodegenerative disease, inherited disorders, mitochondria disease, heart disease, myopathies and muscular dystrophies, evolutionary biology, obesity, diabetes, kidney disease, etc.) to come together at one meeting. The primary outcome we hope to stimulate is interaction and cross fertilization of ideas between these diverse scientists leading to new collaborations and synergistic advances.
