Funded Activity Summary

The MIA mitochondrial import pathway: structure and function. Our aging population is increasingly susceptible to mitochondrial disease and Australia is vulnerable to the associated economic and social burden. This research will benefit Australia by contributing to a knowledge-based economy; identifying new pathways that can be targeted for therapeutic intervention; developing smarter and faster hybrid approaches that strengthen Australia's basic and strategic research capability; and forging new international links. In the future, this research will lead to new collaborations between academia and industry and the discovery of potential new drugs that would benefit the health of Australians, benefit the economy of our healthcare system and provide potential economic benefits through royalty streams.
