OROBOROS Science Scholarship
OROBOROS Science Scholarships are offered for focused research projects on mitochondrial physiology and high-resolution respirometry. Recipients will join the O2k-Team for extending international cooperations in the Mitochondrial Physiology Network with young and experienced scientists, or for initiating long-term collaborative projects.
We share our experience in high-resolution respirometry. PhD students or postdocs may join us for a defined project in the Mitochondrial Research Laboratory of OROBOROS INSTRUMENTS which is closely linked to the Mitochondrial Physiology group of E. Gnaiger at the Medical University of Innsbruck and the MitoCom Tyrol network. This project will provide an in-depth introduction or extension of previously gained expertise in
- the technical details of high-resolution respirometry including O2k-MultiSensor applications;
- the preparation of permeabilized tissue (in particular muscle fibers), tissue homogenates or permeabilized cells for OXPHOS analysis;
- the conceptual basis of OXPHOS analysis with respiratory substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration (SUIT) protocols when working with isolated mitochondria, permeabilized cells or tissue homogenates;
- participation as a tutor in an O2k-Workshop on high-resolution respirometry.
The OROBOROS Scholarship may initiate an application for a postdoc grant (Marie Curie Fellowships etc.) to join us for a full postdoc project.
How to apply
- Contact Erich Gnaiger and Verena Laner.
To initiate such a project, we would define the project with a realistic time plan for the experimental work, fitting into the research interests of the collaborative teams. OROBOROS INSTRUMENTS provides financial support, accomodation and free registration for an O2k-Workshop.
