EMBO | EMBL Symposium: Cellular Mechanisms Driven by Liquid Phase Separation

Liquid phase separation is emerging as a common biophysical basis underlying many important cellular functions. This conference will bring together scientists from soft matter polymer physics, molecular “un” structural biologists, and biologists working in cell, developmental and neurobiology

- to increase the awareness for how important phase separation is for our understanding of many biological processes
- to explore the large repertoire of new tools generated by other disciplines that are ripe to be applied to complex problems related to phase separation
- to close the gap in human potential and transdisciplinary training to tackle the role of phase separation in biology.
