Venue D Tougen
Organizers: Tomotake Kanki (Niigata University ), Miyuki Sato (Gunma University)
Mitochondria are the organelles which have multiple functions in addition to ATP production, and also have their own DNA because of a unique endosymbiotic origin. This symposium aims to bring together researchers that are studying mitochondria by using various systems and discuss new knowledge on their regulation and physiological roles at the cellular to organism levels.
