* '''Hong Kyu Lee''' (2011-08-31):  I always supported such idea. We need an international organization, just to organize the meeting and disseminate the informations and ideas. Too important topic to be ignored.

* '''Guy Brown''' (2011-08-31):  Sounds great to me. It is not so clear what this entity would usefully do. And the name is crap. But otherwise good idea: Let mitochondria rule the world!

Comments on IMU

  • Hong Kyu Lee (2011-08-31): I always supported such idea. We need an international organization, just to organize the meetings and disseminate the informations and ideas. Too important topic to be ignored.

Hong Kyu - [email protected]

  • Rodrigue Rossignol (2011-08-31): There exists a new International group that federates a large number of associations of patients with Mitochondrial diseases, and I'm involved in it's organization: AMMi (FR), AEPMi (ES), BOKS BE), DGM (DE), MDC (GB), Mitocon (IT), UMDF (US), VKS (NL), VSN (NL). You could contact the leader of IMP, Elja van der Veer ([email protected]), to propose your idea of networking Science societies with Patient's. That's a need in my opinion to advance in the same direction. So let's discuss that topic in Bordeaux and we could invite Elja to Austria then!

Rodrigue - [email protected]

  • Guy Brown (2011-08-31): Sounds great to me. It is not so clear what this entity would usefully do. And the name International Union of Pure and Applied Mitochondrial Research and Medicine (IUPAM) is crap. But otherwise good idea: Let mitochondria rule the world!

Guy - [email protected]

  • Kathrin Renner-Sattler (2011-08-31): I included it in the Agenda.

Kathi - [email protected]

  • Steven Hand (2011-08-31): The concept sounds reasonable to me – something that should be discussed in Bordeaux at our board meeting at least.

Steve - [email protected]

  • Erich Gnaiger (2011-08-31): For our MiPboard meeting: Do you all agree on the present status of MiPlinks? MiPlinks are part of the MiPs identity. (1) I guess, most links are generally agreed upon. But are ISOTT and BTK (BTK changed name) actually MiPlinks? Should the many Free Radical Societies be considered as potential MiPlinks? The Biochemical Society is missing, who thanks to Guy fully supported MiP2007. Where would it stop? (2) Should the ‘company links’ page be removed from our website – what are the criteria of inclusion/exclusion? (Mitosciences does not exist any longer; LEA has supported us previously, but over the last couple of years I did not receive a single response to many Emails that I sent). Who is contacting the companies acting as MiP2011 sponsors, if they would agree to be listed on MiPlinks, and for how long would such companies be listed? (3) To answer one of Guy’s questions (‘It is not so clear what this entity would usefully do.): The task of general Links could be shifted to an IMU organization, taking care of such links as one of its (many) specific tasks. No single mito-initiative looks yet at networking from a modern global perspective – including the interesting initiative considered by Rodrigue (where do we find information on this new network or on the many other emerging mito-initiatives?). Is MiPs different – is it really ‘international’? When organizing the next MiPconference, should we accept that we are mainly European, with some North and South American influence? Or should we extend our links actively to Asia with invited speakers particularly from India, Japan, China, Korea (add the countries with your personal connections). An ‘International Union’ might bring us on the right track – science without borders (see Crystal Conference]). It will be great to discuss these topics in Bordeaux, and please help in advance to transfer the spirit of our focussed 10+5 min schedule to the MiPboard (not MiPbored) lunch meeting.

  • Vilma Borutaite (2011-09-02): Networking sounds good. It would be good to discuss this more in Bordeaux.
