Abstract: 2016 Jul 07-13, Kuehtai, AT. The project MitoFit aims at developing novel laboratory standards and diagnostic monitoring of a mitochondrial fitness score. With an international team of outstanding mitochondrial experts, the MitoFit Training Camp will provide a unique opportunity to receive first-hand introductions to state-of-the-art diagnostic monitoring of mitochondrial respiratory function. Diverse areas are covered such as protective medicine, exercise physiology, mitochondrial pharmacology, aging, and comparative mitochondrial physiology (cell types, tissues, species). The MitoFit Training Camp will address key topics of the COST Action MITOEAGLE project and provide a key opportunity to prepare the 1st Management Committee Meeting.

Topics included

» Towards a knowledge management platform for mitochondrial physiology - feeding the database.

» Do bioenergetics and mitochondrial physiology need a consistent nomenclature to become MitoFit?

» Thermodynamics of core energy metabolism: chemical and electrical fluxes and forces - how textbook errors generate noise instead of information.

• Sign in as a subject: ergometric tests and MitoFit score of blood cells (limited number of participants).
• MitoFit: expertise by experience - high altitude sports and physiotherapy in the Kuehtai environment
