Dear Munich Muscle Researchers and others,

We are delighted to invite you to the 18th Munich Muscle Meeting, which will take place on Thursday, November 7th at 3:45 PM. The event will be hosted at the Max-Planck-Institute of Biochemistry in Martinsried.

We are pleased to announce that Marco Sandri from the University of Padova will be joining us as our Keynote speaker. Professor Sandri is a true expert in the field of muscle growth, atrophy, and cancer cachexia, and we are excited to hear his insights and perspectives.

Here, you will find the detailed program for the meeting, along with instructions on how to reach the venue. We hope this information will help you plan your visit accordingly. Please use this lets-meet-link to register, so that we can plan some refreshments for the right amount of people.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or require additional information. We look forward to welcoming you to what promises to be a stimulating gathering with many opportunities for discussion.

Dear Munich Muscle Researchers and others,

it's a pleasure to inform you about the next Munich Muscle Meeting. It will take place in person on Thursday October 19th from 4:00 until 6:00 pm. The meeting will be organized by Henning Wackerhage and Martin Schönfelder (TUM; Exercise Biology). We are very happy to have a keynote presentation from Dr. Maria Rohm. Maria is a group leader at the Institute for Diabetes and Cancer at Helmholtz Center of Munich. Her research addresses the role of tissue crosstalk in the metabolic diseases, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and cancer cachexia.

We are looking forward to see you in precence at the TUM Campus Olympic Park. Here, you will find the program flyer.

Best wishes,

Dear Munich Muscle Researchers and others,
Because of COVID-19, the next Munich Muscle Meeting will again be a Zoom meeting. Whilst this is disappointing, we are absolutely delighted to announce that Prof. Dr. Stefano Schiaffino will be the main speaker on “Fiber types in skeletal muscle: from antiomyosin antibodies to single fiber proteomics”. His talk will include a brief historical retrospective and then move to the perspectives opened by novel approaches, such as single fiber proteomics and single myonuclei RNA-seq. Stefano Schiaffino is a legend in muscle research with many stand out findings especially in relation to the characterization of muscle fibres as well as mechanisms of muscle adaptation to exercise. He is now an emeritus Professor at the Venetian Institute of Molecular Medicine of the University of Padova (Italy) but a very research-active emeritus Professor as his talk will show!

In addition to the talk by Prof. Schiaffino, we have three further speakers. The program flyer you will find here. Also, we aim to produce a  Munich Muscle Meeting newsletter. To subscribe please send an e-mail to munich-muscle-meeting(at)sg.tum.de.  

Best wishes,
Martin Schönfelder & Henning Wackerhage

Because of COVID-19 we were forced to switch to an online meeting which will take place on the 30.6. from 16.30-18.00 h German time (so 15.30-17.00 h UK time). Each talk will be 30 min plus up to 15 min discussion.

Because it is online, we were able to recruit two speakers from further afield. Our first speaker is Prof Pete Zammit of King’s College London. He will talk on "Muscle stem cells and regeneration in muscular dystrophy". The seconf talk will be hold by PD Dr. Simone Hettmer (Universität Freiburg). She will present us the cellular and molecular underpinnings of rhabdomyosarcoma and show us recent insights, new perspectives, and clinical implications of this disease. 

If you are interested to participate in this virtual meeting, please send an email to Martin Schönfelder (martin.schoenfelder@tum.de)
