We will be covering various topics ranging from structural insights of the molecular machines involved in proteostasis to chemical approaches for studying the ubiquitin system, as well as various biological pathways such as autophagy, protein quality control, DNA repair and proteostasis related to development, stress and immune regulation.
Program
Our 2-day program comprises talks from renowned scientists invited as guest speakers (see here), accompanied by talks selected from submitted abstracts, and flash talks followed by poster sessions.
