14:00 - 16:00 Introductory presentations

14:00 Welcome - who is who
14:07 Erich Gnaiger: Introduction to the workshop.
14:15 Alexander Karabatsiakis: Blood cell respiratory function as a diagnostic biomarker.
14:45 Rainer Mutschler: Mitochondrial medicine requires high-quality diagnostics of mitochondrial (dys)function.
15:00 Elisa Calabria: Mitochondrial function in blood cell subpopulations of middle aged and older adults - project perspectives.

16:00 Break - Coffee/Team

16:30 - 17:30 Round table discussion

Relevant topics:
  • Standardization of blood sampling.
  • Standard protocols for blood cell separation, cell type characterization (purity, composition).
  • Measurements for normalization: cell counting, protein, marker enzymes.
  • Blood cells storage: from fresh cells to cryopreservation.
  • Incubation media for measurement of intact and permeabilized cells.
  • Respiratory SUIT protocols: From replicates to multiple SUIT protocols.
  • Quality control, data analysis and data reporting.
  • Towards a data bank on mitochondrial respiratory function in human blood cells.
  • Mitochondrial biomarker: correlations of mitochondrial function in blood cells and other tissues.
  • From mitochondrial research to personalized patient diagnostics.
  • Blood cell mitochondria for drug development.
  • Perspectives for the stakeholders.

17:30 - 18:00 Next steps

For participants staying in Innsbruck: a glass of wine in the spirit of Gentle Science - Dinner
