Mitochondria Summer School 2025 When: 19.-23.5.2025 Where: Rokua, Finland, and online Join us for an immersive week at the Mitochondria Summer School 2025, where leading experts and researchers will explore cutting-edge topics in mitochondrial biology! The summer school program offers an intensive, multi-day learning experience focused on mitochondrial biology, featuring expert-led sessions on a wide range of key topics.
For whom? The Summer School will host 30 PhD students from across Europe on-site. The target group includes students in, e.g., cell biology, metabolic diseases, neurobiology, fibrotic disorders, cancer, and pharmacology. On-site participants will be selected through a selection process. The call for onsite participation is open!https://ssl.eventilla.com/mitochondriasummerschool2025?tab=1#main-content The application deadline is Sunday, April 6th, 2025.
