MMF functions as an international center for research and diagnostics in disorders of mitochondrial metabolism, and as a bioenergetics and proteomics/metabolomics core facility.
MMF is affiliated with both Aarhus University (Department of Clinical Medicine) and Aarhus University Hospital (Department of Clinical Biochemistry), and MMF provide the infrastructure and knowledgebase for collaborative projects that bridge basic and clinical science.
MMF’s mission is to 1) perform research within biomarker discoveries and mitochondrial medicine, 2) provide genetic diagnostics for inborn errors of mitochondrial metabolism, incl. the Danish Newborn Screening Program, and 3) provide research-based teaching and training within molecular medicine through advanced molecular methods such as proteomics, metabolomics and bioenergetics.
MMF conducts research within inborn errors of mitochondrial metabolism and has a unique biobank of skin fibroblasts derived from this patient group. The fibroblasts are used as pre-clinical disease models to study disease mechanisms and new treatment targets. MMF also studies mitochondria and metabolism in neurodegenerative diseases, myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), long-COVID, diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and cardiovascular diseases.
MMF provides genetic diagnostics for inborn errors of mitochondrial fatty acid and amino acid oxidation as a highly specialized function. The genetic analyses are accredited by DANAK (ISO 15 189). MMF guide clinicians and biochemists about interpretation of genetic results for correct diagnostics and for prognostic and treatment options.
MMF provides research-based training (bachelor, master, and PhD studies) and courses, e.g. incl Introduction to Research Training in Health Sciences, From Gene to Function and Proteomics and Protein Profiling.
MMF is always welcoming new student projects (bachelor, master, PhD) and collaborations!
