8-9 May 2025, Vienna
Ubiquitin & Friends Symposium 2025
organized by the SFB consortium "Targeted Protein Degradation", lead institution: University of Vienna
The Ubiquitin & Friends Symposium is an annual international meeting taking place in the beautiful capital of Austria, aiming to bring together scholars from various fields studying ubiquitin/Ubl biology and protein degradation in a personal, family-like atmosphere, as suggested by the name. The upcoming symposium will cover current research, challenges, and advances in Ub/Ubl biology. Topics include structural insights into molecular machines involved in proteostasis, chemical and proteomic approaches for studying the Ub system and Ub signaling, as well as various biological pathways such as cell division, autophagy, protein quality control, and proteostasis during stress, aging, and diseases. For the 2025 symposium, we have attracted a number of outstanding speakers, see below. Additionally, talks will be selected from submitted abstracts.
