Our MiniSymposium on Current Questions and Tools of Energetic Metabolism was a fantastic success, featuring presentations from top researchers: Dr. Pierre Cardol (Université de Liège), Dr. Diego González Halphen (IFC, UNAM), Dr. Wojciech J. Nawrocki (CNRS), and our own Dra. Diana Rubalcava Gracia (IIBo, UNAM).
We were thrilled by the excellent attendance from students and faculty, which led to a Q&A session with thoughtful and stimulating questions for the speakers.
A big thank you to all the presenters for their insightful contributions!
