His research examines the use of pharmacological compounds to remedy protein misfolding. He primarily focuses on a group of proteins called solute carrier 6 (SLC6) transporters\, which include transporters for creatine\, amino acids\, biogenic amines\, and osmolytes. Mutations in the genes encoding the SLC6 transporters are linked to various diseases. In the case of creatine transporter\, the disease-causing mutations retain the transporter in the endoplasmic reticulum\, thereby affecting its surface availability. Pharmacological approaches can be used to restore the surface availability of at least some of the disease-causing mutations. Additionally\, he uses Drosophila melanogaster as a model organism to understand dopamine and serotonin neurotransmission. He also teaches undergraduate and graduate students at the Department of Neuroscience and Developmental Biology\, University of Vienna. He completed an MSc in Molecular Neuroscience at the University of Bristol\, UK\, and a Ph.D. in Cell Communication in Health and Disease at the Medical University of Vienna\, Austria.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text]Dr. Claire Colas\, Ph.D.\nUniversity of Vienna \nConference Talk Recording \nClaire Colas is a postdoctoral scientist in the Pharmacoinformatics research group (University of Vienna).

First at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New-York City (2013-2018) and then in Vienna (2018-present)\, Dr. Colas has been working on distinct SLC families\, involved in various diseases and disorders.\nDr. Colas uses various computational methods such as homology modeling and molecular docking to explore the structural determinants defining the substrate specificities of SLCs.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text]Prof. Emil Alexov\, Ph.D.\nClemson University \nConference Talk Recording \nEmil Alexov is a professor at Clemson University\, SC\, USA. He is affiliated with the Departments of Physics and Astronomy\, Material Sciences\, and the School of Nursing HealthCare Genetics. His research is focused on understanding the molecular effects caused by human DNA variants associated with diseases and developing treatments to eliminate these effects. Of particular interest are monogenic diseases and X-linked disorders. He also develops methods to predict the pathogenicity of mutations and their effect on the thermodynamic properties of macromolecules and their assemblages.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text]Axel Neu\, MD\nDepartment of Pediatrics\, UKE\, Hamburg\, Germany \nAxel Neu is a child neurologist at the university hospital Hamburg Eppendorf.

SUMMARY:Exhibit at the UMDF Mitochondrial Medicine 2013 Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Exhibit at the UMDF Mitochondrial Medicine 2013 Symposium\nNewport Beach\, California\nJune 12 – 15\, 2013 \nThe ACD was thrilled to exhibit at the UMDF Mitochondrial Medicine 2013 Symposium that was held in Newport Beach\, California. \nThis symposium encourages the exchange of information and cultivates networking among physicians\, researchers\, patients and families for mitochondrial diseases. Linda Cooper and Kim Tuminello were in attendance for the ACD and met many wonderful people! They had a very active booth and were able to connect with professionals that gave them guidance related to patient advocacy groups. The most frequently shared advice to the ACD was to increase our patient registry! This is a must in accomplishing our goals. \nWe take this information to heart and will actively work on connecting with other organizations\, the medical community at large\, lab facilities\, patients\, and families to improve our patient registry. The ACD will continue to exhibit at future conferences that connect with Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Syndromes. \nLook who else was at the UMDF Symposium.
