Biomembrane Days workshop

December 11 – 13 2019, Harnack Haus, Berlin (Germany).
Deadline for abstract submission and poster registration, September 30, 2019.

The Biomembrane Days is a biannual workshop that highlights recent advances in understanding the morphology and molecular organization of biomimetic and biological membranes.

Central topics of the Biomembrane Days 2019 will be the shaping and scaffolding of membranes by proteins, synthetic cells, giant vesicles, membrane-carbohydrate interactions, and nanoparticles. Contributed talks, selected from the submitted abstracts, are a key part of the Biomembrane Days.
