Publication of the Volume II of Mitochondrial Medicine by Volkmar Weissig and Marvin Edeas

Volkmar-Weissig Marvin-Edeas Mitochondrial Medicine IIIn 2015, Volkmar Weissig and Marvin Edeas, as chairmen of the World Mitochondria Society, edited two excellent books:

Mitochondrial Medicine: Volume 1 - Probing Mitochondrial Function
Mitochondrial Medicine: Volume 2 - Manipulating Mitochondrial Function
Concerning the second volume:

This expert volume covers an interdisciplinary and rapidly growing area of biomedical research comprising genetic, biochemical, pathological, and clinical studies aimed at the diagnosis and therapy of human diseases which are either caused by or associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. It dedicates itself to showcasing the tremendous efforts and the progress that has been made over the last decades in developing techniques and protocols for probing, imaging, and manipulating mitochondrial functions. Mitochondrial Medicine: Volume II, Manipulating Mitochondrial Function describes techniques developed for manipulating and assessing mitochondrial function under general pathological conditions and specific disease states. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Volkmar Weissg and Marvin Edeas highlited in these two volumes the strategic role of mitochondria in health and disease, but they also opened a new window to how to evaluate & to manipulate mitochondrial function.

More than 70 chapters were published by Springer in the two volumes.

Volkmar Weissig and Marvin Edeas will update and renew an edition for 2017 and will discuss during about contributors and targets during the 7th World Congress on Targeting Mitochondria to be held in Berlin on October 24-26, 2016.
