A Mitochondrial Festival in the Spirit of Gentle Science
Invitation-Bioblast 2012-12-12.jpg

2012 December 10th to 12th

  • Location: Innsbruck, Austria
  • Mitochondrial life style - from evolution to protective medicine
  • Mitochondria at the top of life - their big role in sports
  • History of science - the roots of innovation: From fierce competition to ‘Gentle Science’
  • Mitochondrial networks without borders - Do we need an International Mitochondrial Union?


Programme (see Participants and titles of presentations)

Start: December 10, Welcome Dinner at Hotel Grauer Bär
End: December 12, Gala Dinner and Concert at Swarovski Crystal World
Topics:
Aerobic capacity - a world-wide topic
Bioblasts in thin air

Participants and titles of presentations

Work in progress
  • Darío Acuña-Castroviejo (Universidad de Granada, Spain) Melatonin: A miraculous antioxidant with mitochondrial action.
  • Ali Sameh S (Helmy Institute of Medical Sciences, Giza, Egypt) - Mitochondria without borders - Health and disease - MitoLifeStyle World-Wide
  • Frédéric Bouillaud (Faculté de Médecine Necker-Enfants Malades, Paris, FR) Coming from the dark ages of mitochondria: sulfide a deadly snare, the best redox food and a signal.


Presentations

In the spirit of Gentle Science and Tempo giusto, your audience asks you to adhere to the limited time available for individual presentations, and to encourage the extended communication in stimulating discussions.
Bioblast would like to encourage the senior scientists to:
  • Think big and deep - with mitochondrial competence,
  • Provocative, perhaps a blend of experimental/theoretical and published/unpublished,
  • Across borderlines, beyond the limits of our present experimental evidence.
  • Historical perspective that projects into the future.
  • Start and end with a simple message that will stick to many minds in and beyond the audience - the message beyond your abstract.
  • Don't be afraid of critical comments.
Bioblast wants the junior scientists to:
  • Focus on experimental results - with mitochondrial competence.
  • Present data with a critical mind.
  • Don't be afraid of challenging what may be merely dogmatic textbook knowledge.
  • Start with a question and end with a clear message (or a clear question) - the message beyond your abstract.
  • Don't be afraid of constructive comments.


Further contacts to mitochondrial organizations without participation


Bioblast Conference hosted by OROBOROS INSTRUMENTS

The O2k-Team hopes that the Bioblast Conference will be an explicit statement on the value and high quality of cooperation between the OROBOROS MiPNet Reference Laboratories who contributed to the world-wide success of high-resolution respirometry. Your feedback is most valuable to us.
  • OROBOROS and High-Resolution Respirometry
1992- 20 years high-resolution respirometry
2002- 10 years O2k
2012- this year: Houska Award
  • OROBOROS MiPNet Reference Laboratories: As an appreciation of your cooperation, OROBOROS INSTRUMENTS invites a delegate of your research group to join the Bioblast Conference free of charge. According to our CSR-strategy, we stay away from ‘low-value advertisements’ to stimulate the flow of high-quality information. Our priorities focus on communication rather than diverting support away to Madison Avenue advertising. Any support by the participants is greatly appreciated.
