New Insights into Structure, Function, and Regulation of Critical Membrane Transport Proteins in Health and Disease

Our vision for the 2024 GRC on Membrane Transport Proteins is to link molecular and mechanistic insights on clinically important membrane transporters expressed in different tissues, including carriers, ion channels, and pumps, to physiological function and disease-related dysfunction. The program will include talks from both established and early-career researchers and there are speaking slots reserved for students and postdoctoral researchers that will be selected from submitted the abstracts. In addition, a Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on Membrane Transport Proteins will be held immediately prior to the conference. The Seminar, organized by trainee scientists, will provide an additional forum to highlight research, network with colleagues, as well as to discuss challenges of the early career stages.

We strongly encourage conference applications by junior and senior scientists from across the globe and by scientists from historically underrepresented groups.
