Science is now discovering that mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in every chronic disease. Yet how much do we really understand of the workings of this intricate and delicate organelle, how easily it can be damaged and what we can do to put it right?

Biolab present a day of teaching on mitochondrial structure and function, showing how to test it and describing its role in chronic disease and how to correct dysfunction and improve patient outcomes. Dr Sarah Myhill will also be talking about her ground-breaking work on mitochondrial dysfunction in chronic fatigue syndrome.
