Dynamic DNA Structures in Biology
2024-07-21 - 2024-07-25
Since 2008, this FASEB Science Research Conference (SRC) has focused on exploring all aspects of unusual DNA structures. This year’s program will present and integrate research advances in the biological roles of unusual DNA structures to foster new national and global collaborative projects. The program will also include elements to encourage and support junior investigators/trainees, women, and those from historically excluded groups to pursue research in this area thus ensuring that the study of this field remains vigorous.

TGF-β Superfamily
2024-07-21 - 2024-07-25
Since 1999, this unique SRC has been a venue for disseminating progressive and contemporary scientific research on TGF-β signaling for academic and industrial scientists. This conference will explore the latest developments in this discipline, ranging from the molecular complexities of signal transduction to biological responses during development and adult tissue homeostasis in health and disease.

Virus Structure and Assembly
2024-07-21 - 2024-07-25
Since 1990, this essential conference has provided a platform for viral researchers to share their research, collaborate, and network to ensure a firm footing on which viral diseases and host defenses can be understood and novel therapeutics developed. The conference will cover topics and methodologies such as viral genomics, new anti-viral treatments, emerging viruses, and pandemic readiness.

Lipid Droplets: From Mechanisms to Disease
2024-07-21 - 2024-07-25
Since 2008, this FASEB Science Research Conference (SRC) has been the longest-running international conference dedicated exclusively to lipid droplet biology and its relevance to human disease. The sessions will explore lipid droplets in the context of their biogenesis/turnover, contacts with other organelles, integrative biology, and their role in human physiology and disease.

Phospholipids in Aging and Disease
2024-07-21 - 2024-07-25
For over 35 years, this Science Research Conference (SRC) has presented and integrated advances in phospholipid biology and signaling to foster new national and international collaborative projects. This year’s SRC will continue to encourage and support junior investigators, trainees, women, and minority scientists to pursue phospholipid biology research, ensuring that the study of human diseases relevant to aging remains vigorous. It will also accelerate the translation of fundamental advances into novel clinical treatments through the interactions of basic and clinical researchers.

Protein Lipidation: Enzymology, Signaling, Therapeutics
2024-07-21 - 2024-07-25
For over 30 years, this conference has brought together biomedical researchers and scientists that study protein lipidation, allowing those from different areas of specialization to come together and discuss new ideas and form synergistic collaborations. This year’s program will focus on a variety of disciplines within this field of study including mechanisms and consequences of acylation, prenylation, and post-prenylation processing of proteins, as well as the synthesis and transport of intracellular lipids. Also, the importance of protein-lipid interactions for cellular signaling at specialized membrane domains and its relevance in disease will be covered.

Small GTPases: Membrane Traffic and Cytoskeleton
2024-07-21 - 2024-07-25
Join FASEB for the sixth installment of this important conference, exploring GTPases in the fields of cytoskeleton, signaling, and membrane traffic. This year’s program will focus on how membrane structure and function are regulated, not just within molecular components, but regarding how they function. Recent findings indicate that there is an extensive crosstalk between membrane traffic and cytoskeletal dynamics, although the phenomenon is still not fully understood. Additional findings have found that the dysfunction of small GTPases and their regulators are the key aspects of numerous human diseases and are extremely relevant to the basic cell biology community.

Phase to Phase: The Guide to Drug Development (virtual event)
2024-07-25 09:00 - 10:30 UTC | Online webinar, United States
Sponsored by Thermo Fisher Scientific and PPD, experts will present innovative strategies in outsourcing discovery that allows small companies to focus on their core discovery needs and frees them up from both a capital and manpower investment.
