1st MOSBRI Scientific Conference – June 20-22, 2022

Molecular-scale biophysics is the study of the architecture, dynamics and interactions of the giant molecules of life (proteins, DNA, RNA, polysaccharides, lipids) via measurements of their physical properties. It is fundamental to both our understanding of how living organisms work, and our ability to block or enhance the function of these molecules, notably for therapeutic purposes. Deciphering the complexity of the behavior of macromolecular assemblies requires a multi-faceted approach resorting to a large variety of distinct biophysical methods.

MOSBRI (Molecular-Scale Biophysics Research Infrastructure) is a geographically distributed, scientifically and technologically integrated consortium, combining the distinct instrumentation and expertise of 13 academic centers of excellence and 2 industrial partners from 11 different European countries, coordinated by the Institut Pasteur (Paris, France) and funded by the Horizon 2020 program of the European Commission.

The first MOSBRI conference will show how such an integrated network can tackle an unusually wide variety of life science research questions. It will include presentations from MOSBRI partners and Scientific Advisory Board members, as well as from scientists that have already benefitted from the free of charge Trans-National Access (TNA) opportunities that MOSBRI provides.

This event, initially planned for February 2022, had to be postponed to June because of the health situation at the beginning of the year. It will begin on Monday June 20 at 2pm in the CIS auditorium and will run until Wednesday June 22 at 12.30pm.

The deadline for registration is May 31, 2022. The registration fee for Institut Pasteur staff is 200 € TTC
