Preliminary programme

Main topics:

• The protonmotive force and respiratory control: the thermodynamic basis
• The link between concentration gradients and chemical potential gradients
• Restrictions to intracellular diffusion of ATP and ADP in cardiomyocytes - impact on cardiac E-C coupling
• Two populations of muscle mitochondria: heart and skeletal muscle
• OXPHOS efficiency in skeletal and cardiac muscles
• mitochondrial function during ischemia/reperfusion injury
• Actomyosin contraction and the dynamics of calcium changes in cardiomyocytes
• Deacetylation acceleration of BAT thermogenesis

The scientific sessions will typically consist of introductory lectures plus selected abstract presentations, followed by group discussions in a “meet the expert” format.

How to get there

There are daily flights in each direction between Oslo and Tromsø, flown by SAS and Norwegian (Please note that there are only a few flights on a Saturday)

The same companies also offer some direct flights from Stockholm Arlanda, Copenhagen, and London Gatwick, but these are seasonal (so do check yourselves if these routes are operating and of interest).

Arctic Airlink also offer direct flights to Tromsø from Luleå and Oulu. The nearest train station is Narvik.

It is 3 1/2 hours’ drive from Tromsø, and it is connected to the Swedish, not the Norwegian, rail network (sj.se). There is a bus link from Narvik, but usually, the train does not meet the last bus to Tromsø.
