The 1st International Symposium "One mitochondrion, many diseases" took place in March 11th, 2015, in Sherbrooke, Québec, Canada. It was organized by Prof. Denis Gris from the University of Sherbrooke, Department of Pediatrics.

100 scientists from Québec and Germany came together in Sherbrooke in southern Québec to present and discuss their recent data on the pivotal roles of mitochondria in various diseases, including neurodegeneration, cancer, schizophrenia, respiratory chain, and inflammatory disorders. In this way, the participants and attendees of the symposium got a broad overview of common and distinct mechanisms of mitochondrial (dys)functions underlying various diseases.
