Second World Congress on Targeting Mitochondria, Berlin, Germany
20 October 2011 - 20 October 2011
Germany
The Second World Congress on Targeting Mitochondria will be held from 20 to 21 October 2011 in Berlin, Germany.
In cell biology, a mitochondrion is a membrane-enclosed organelle. They play a critical role in aging and development, making them an attractive target for drug and antioxidant-delivery strategies. Mitochondrial dysfunctions are associated with a range of pathologies such as cancer, diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, migraine and infertility.
The event will look at understanding why and how to target mitochondria with bioactive molecules, drugs or nutrients in order to treat and prevent pathologies and chronic diseases. It will also seek to highlight applications and potential strategies in the prevention and treatment of many chronic diseases and pathologies.
The event will bring together stakeholders involved in all aspects of mitochondria research, including companies, universities and high-level institutes.For further information, please visit: http://www.targeting-mitochondria.com/(opens in new window)
