EMBO workshop on Nuclear Receptors and Biological Networks in Greece

The European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) invites all interested researchers to a workshop organized by Professor Susanne Mandrup, University of Southern Denmark, on nuclear receptors and biological networks taking place 11-13 September 2018 in Kolymbary, Crete, Greece.

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

ThE workshop on Nuclear Receptors and Biological Networks continues the very successful EMBO NR conference series. The overall objective of this meeting series is to ensure a European meeting point for current and up-and-coming scientists in the broader field of Nuclear Receptors (NRs).

The specific objective for the 2018 meeting is to highlight the importance of novel systems approaches for the study of NR functions and to emphasize how NRs constitute excellent tools in systems biology. To facilitate this cross-fertilization of fields, we have invited outstanding speakers with different scientific interests in the NR field as well as world-leading experts in systems approaches.
