Club Mitochondrie

Who we are

The Club Mitochondrie is attached to the Cell Biology department of the I2BC, but open to anyone interested in this fascinating organelle. It was initiated in 2020 by Agnès Delahodde and Nathalie Bonnefoy. It aims at connecting the I2BC, French researchers and researchers outside France working on different aspects of mitochondrial biology. Since January 2021 the organizers are Francesca Giordano and Inge Kühl.

How does it work

The Club Mitochondrie would like to be as interactive and diverse as possible. We will invite external speakers, but we aim also at presenting informal talks, novel techniques and exchange ideas and knowledge. Anyone of the club who would like to present some research, a novel method or a exciting paper is encouraged to contact us. Suggestions for external speakers are very welcome as well.

Where & When

The Club Mitochondrie meets once a month, every third Friday at 11:00 am CET. You can join us either virtually or on I2BC campus in Gif-sur-Yvette (see monthly announcements for location). Please join the virtual meeting with your full name. Please contact us in case you would like to meet the speaker for scientific discussion.
