MiP2010 - Science and Art - The Beauty of Mitochondria

The contributions by Nick Lane and Odra Noel in the final session of MiP2010 were the highlights of a most enjoyable and inspiring MiPconference. We received an overwhelmingly positive feedback on MiP2010 in general and on the last evening of the meeting in particular.

Nick's broad perspective (see abstract) encouraged us all to think beyond the narrow confinements of our specialized fields, and consider science as it should be practiced and communicated at universities. His energetic and compact presentation was just excellent, providing further confirmation that such meetings can be run on a 10+5 min basis - avoiding parallel sessions -, even for special evening lectures.

Odra Noel's MiPArt exhibition and presentation (Life Immitates Art Immitates Life) opened up our minds for an appreciation that we do study life, and that the study of life transcends the limitations of science, whereas science transcends the limitations of art. Thus Odra Noel not only summarized a view on Mitochondrial Science and Art as a driving force for MiP2010, but provided a vision for future perspectives, enriching MiPmeetings with a new dimension of communication, a communication that joins young and established scientists.

Feedback MiP2010

Dear Erich: I would to thank you for the opportunity and to say that I really enjoyed the meeting! I really admire your way of doing "gentle science". I feel that we (maybe) could talk about MiP school in Brazil. Best wishes, Tatiana.

Dear Erich - Hi, I'm Hyoung Kyu a Korean participant in 2010 MIP. It is already 10 days passed after the Mip meeting, and I missed the meeting so much. It was my best conference ever! And I deeply appreciated you for your devotion that make this great conference. Every my colleague very envy me for the meeting. Best regards, Hyoung Kyu Kim.

Hi Erich and Kathrin, I wanted to thank you for the opportunity to attend such an incredible conference! Lena Pernas

Hi Erich and Kathrin, Just wanted to congratulate you both on running and organising a fabulous meeting. The travel organisation was fantastic and I apprecite how difficult that must have been to acheive. As to the conference, the balance of talks and posters was great and also having a large group of young researchers was very comforting and less intimidating. The atmosphere was very relaxed and was as much a social event as well as a business event. The lab I come from isn't a predominately 'mitochondrial' lab therefore I returned homewith an enormous amount of useful information. Much to the delight of my supervisor! She was very impressed with my feed back and will certainly encourage any other students to attend this meeting. Congratulations again - and now the Austrian snow has arrived in Scotland! Many Thanks, Anne Marie Allen
