O2k-Network Manager South Africa
- We thank all participants at the MiPschool Cape Town and the preceding O2k-Workshop for their enthusiastic contributions to ‘Reaching the world’. At this occasion, Oroboros and the O2k-Network Lab of Prof. Edward Ojuka extended the concept of the O2k-Network to provide local services for new users of the Oxygraph-2k. In direct cooperation of scientists with scientists, Miss Siddiqah George, MSc - the co-organizer of the O2k-Workshop IOC99 – has joined our team as the O2k-Network Manager South Africa. As an O2k-Network Manager, Siddiqah will offer on-site installation of the Oxygraph-2k with a 1.5 days training course, including an introduction into the O2k technology, high-resolution respirometry and DatLab software. If you are interested in an experimental demonstration of the Oxygraph-2k, please contact Siddiqah.
- On-site installation and training is thus available when purchasing an Oxygraph-2k, complementary to the free registration and travel grant to attend an Oroboros O2k-Workshop.

- We were overwhelmed by the scientific quality of the discussions and the high level of motivation, which made the IOC99 a great success. We are looking forward to your feedback and to the next steps towards exciting collaborations.
- With best regards and greetings from Austria,

- Erich Gnaiger, Professor at the Daniel Swarovski Research Laboratory, Department of Visceral, Transplant and Thoracic Surgery at the Medical University of Innsbruck, Austria, and CEO of Oroboros Instruments, will share some of his experiences in the many expeditions he and his team have undertaken to investigate mitochondrial function at extreme conditions: These studies have included (a) analysis of Alaskan huskies before and after the 1,100 miles long Iditarod race, b) OXPHOS analysis and acclimation of muscle mitochondria at the Everest base camp located 5,364 m above sea level, c) evaluation of mitochondrial fitness in permeabilized muscle fibers obtained from traditional lifestyle Inuit hunters in Northern Greenland compared to Western lifestyle Inuits and Danish participants of the 42-days expedition.
