Membrane Proteins Conference Leonardo Royal Hotel, Birmingham, UK | 7-9 April 2026
Membrane proteins have important roles across all kingdoms of life. They are involved in a myriad of diverse and fundamental biological processes, which include the transport of substrates across membranes, relaying signals between the cell and its environment, the catalysis of chemical reactions, cell adhesion and influencing the immune response. However, whilst between 20-30% of the genome of most organisms encode for membrane proteins, the role of these systems remains poorly understood. The aim of this meeting is to bring together researchers from these areas who are experts in these cutting-edge technologies to promote the sharing of knowledge and ideas
Oral communication slots are available at this meeting.
All attendees, particularly researchers in the early stages of their career, are invited to submit a poster abstract for consideration as an oral communication. You can submit your abstract here.
