RTG reloc - International Symposium
Dynamic protein localization - driving proteomic plasticity
September 7/8, 2023
Venue: Department of Chemistry, lecture hall III, Greinstraße 6, 50939 Cologne
The international symposium "Dynamic protein localization driving proteomic plasticity" is organized by the PhD students of the Research Training Group (RTG reloc) located at the University of Cologne. Our interdisciplinary research, bridging chemistry, biochemistry and cell biology, focusses on mechanisms driving and controlling (re)localization events, and their functional and physiological consequences. With our two-day international symposium, our PhD students have the opportunity and the ambition to bring experts in the field of protein localization events to Cologne.
We are looking forward to welcoming you in Cologne!
