Mitochondrial Health and Healthspan: Brain Metabolism and Bioenergetics

Three themes structure the programme: Mitochondrial Genetics and Cellular Signaling in Brain Health (mitochondrial DNA variation and bioenergetics in neural performance and disease risk); Mitochondrial Psychobiology: Stress, Development, and Neuroplasticity; and Metabolic Psychiatry and Mitochondrial Therapeutics: From Diet to Drug Development. Talks address mechanisms linking mitochondrial dysfunction to cognitive decline, mood disorders, neurodevelopmental conditions and neurodegeneration, and translational biomarkers and precision interventions. Douglas Wallace (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia) gives the keynote. The event runs in person and online.
