Research School
”New Horizons in Signal Transduction”
July 27-28, 2023
University Medical Center, University Goettingen
Welcome
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
It is with great pleasure that we invite you to the Research School “New Horizons in Signal Transduction" in Goettingen 27-28 July 2023
Signal transduction, a rich and diverse field, plays a critical role in many pathological conditions. Examples of these conditions are heart diseases as well as impaired cognitive function and cancer. This conference will provide insights into cutting edge areas of signal transduction, such as gene and RNA-based regulation, OMICs approaches to study post-translational modifications, and metabolic signaling via lipids.
Come and be inspired by colleagues studying different perspectives of signal transduction with exciting molecular tools in Goettingen in 2023!
✔ Join this conference and be inspired by top experts within signal transduction
✔ Gain knowledge of the field from many different angles, apply for awards & prizes
✔ Meet and network with colleagues and peers at networking sessions and our BBQ dinner
We look forward to seeing you in Göttingen!
Antje Ebert & Klaudia Giehl
