'''''MitoCom Tyrol''''' is a consortium of academic and industrial partners for integrative research in mitochondrial physiology and pathology. ''MitoCom'' (Universities of Innsbruck, OROBOROS INSTRUMENTS, Austria) supports international mitochondrial networks, for exchange of expertise and standardization of diagnostic approaches, in a joint effort to helping mitochondrial patients and making a difference to society. The project '''''MitoCom Tyrol''''' (2011-2014) is a milestone in the establishment of ''MitoCom'', supported by K-Regio to promote science, research and development within the area of Tyrol.

=== Mitochondrial Competence ===
Preservation, gain or loss of '''mitochondrial competence''' plays an increasing role in therapeutic and preventive medicine, with exercise and caloric balance ranking among the most effective measures for the reduction of several age-related health risks and degenerative diseases. Evaluation of mitochondrial competence requires improved methods and concepts for the diagnosis of mitochondrial functions and mitochondrial injuries, and represents a current challenge for biomedical research and development. ''MitoCom'' is a gateway to better diagnose, support and treat patients in our modern, rapidly ageing society.
=== Aim of ''MitoCom Tyrol'' ===
The aim of the project ''MitoCom Tyrol'' (2011-2014) is the development, evaluation and application of a new high-resolution instrument, the O2k-Fluorometer, which builds upon the [http://www.oroboros.at/?Oxygraph OROBOROS Oxygraph-2k] developed and extended since 2001 by [http://www.oroboros.at OROBOROS INSTRUMENTS] and [http://www.wgt.at WGT-Elektronik]. The Fluorescence-LED2-Module is available since April 2012 as a modular extension for the Oxygraph-2k, the instrumental basis for [http://www.oroboros.at/?high-resolution-respirometry| high-resolution respirometry] (HRR).
The project ''MitoCom Tyrol'' (Medical University of Innsbruck) received the [http://www.oroboros.at/?Houska-Award_2011 Houska-Award 2011], Austria's most prestigeous privately funded award for research (EUR 120.000,-).
