How Kinetics Experiments Unveil Organelle Complexity

#MitochonriaUnlocked is a five-part video series from Dr. Tatiana Rosenstock, a neuroscientist at Sygnature Discovery. Across five short episodes, Tatiana shares real-world mitochondrial data and practical guidance to help decision-makers in the CNS disease space understand how, and why, mitochondrial health is becoming central to drug discovery.

Mitochondria behave dynamically and kinetic experiments reveal things static measurements can’t. In Episode 3, Tatiana explains how time-resolved data uncovers the complexity of mitochondrial responses and why kinetic readouts are increasingly used in pharmacological evaluations. She discusses how these experiments help identify subtle dysfunction earlier in the discovery process.

About Tatiana

Tatiana Rosenstock has had an exceptional career and has made significant contributions to the field of Neuroscience for 20+ years. Her work has focused on topics such as mitochondrial deregulation, transcription deregulation, and autophagy in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Huntington’s Disease, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, and Schizophrenia.  

At Sygnature Discovery, Tatiana is a Principal Scientist overseeing various neuroscience-related projects in different sub-areas such as metabolism (mitochondrial function), biomarkers, microglial function and activation, and neuroplasticity. During this period, she has been working with distinct in-vitro models, named iPSC-derived neurons, primary cortical neurons, Alzheimer`s and Parkinson`s disease fibroblasts, neuroblastomas cell lines, tissue and biofluids from transgenics animal models of Alzheimer`s disease.
