‘FEBS 2023’ will include several plenary lectures from outstanding research leaders, for inspiration and a broad perspective on recent research progress across the molecular and cellular life sciences; symposia sessions offering deeper dives into fast-moving topics identified as exciting and important areas for researchers to keep abreast of now, from basic science subjects to topics with more direct relevance for human health and environmental concerns; opportunities for those attending to be active participants by presenting their own work as brief talks or posters. See you in Tours!

This FEBS Advanced Lecture Course / 14th European Summer School on Advanced Proteomics – an internationally renowned educational event – will be held again in Kloster Neustift near Bressanone/Brixen, South Tyrol, Italy. It is designed to provide graduate students and young postdoctoral scientists with insights into state-of-the-art proteomic technologies and applications in the life sciences. One of our main goals is to create an environment that allows young scientists to interact with each other and with experts in the field. Join us for a summer school including lectures by invited speakers, workshops and poster presentations framed by various special activities.

Organizers: Katrin Marcus, Caroline May, Christina Ludwig, Shabaz Mohammed, Jesper V. Olsen

Our FEBS Advanced Lecture Course aims to provide PhD students and postdocs with different backgrounds an adequate introduction into epigenomics and nuclear receptor signaling, and particularly to cross-fertilize these burgeoning fields to better understand disease mechanisms. The interactive program and the idyllic surroundings will facilitate scientific and social networking during workshops, lunch discussions about lecture topics, poster and short talks sessions, afternoon breaks and tutorial dinners.

Organizers: Eckardt Treuter, Karen E. Knudsen, Susanne Mandrup, Nicolas Venteclef

Deadline for applications: 9 May 2023

In this FEBS Advanced Lecture Course we have brought together a unique combination of frontiers in science focusing on the the capacity of numerous proteins and peptides to self-assemble into amyloid fibrils. The course includes introductory and state-of-art lectures with special emphasis on amyloid structures, chaperones in amyloid formation, membrane-less organelles, lipids and membranes in amyloid formation, functional amyloids, and pathology of amyloids. In the evening lectures, the different topics will be discussed in an integrative manner. Young researchers will have ample opportunity to meet and to discuss basic and emerging topics with the lecturers as social interactions are an important aspect of the meeting.

Organizers: Bernd Helms, Sheena Radford, Stefan Rüdiger

Deadline for applications: 1 May 2023

Over the past 20 years metabolomics has evolved into a powerful tool allowing the investigation of hundreds to low thousands of metabolites from many areas of metabolism and can be applied across the biological sciences to investigate cellular organisms from microbes to humans and plants. In this FEBS Practical Course we will combine lectures, hands-on laboratory sessions, computer workshops, and interactive group activities to introduce you to applying metabolomics in your research.
