Dear Friends and Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the Organelle Biogenesis and Signal Transduction” to be held in Turin, Italy, on the 26-28 May 2016. The meeting will take place at the Molecular Biotechnology Center in Via Nizza 52, close to the Turin city center.

The major goal of the meeting is to bring together the Italian community working on organelle biogenesis, signal transduction and membrane trafficking in order to foster the scientific discussion on this active field of studies. It represents a great opportunity to share ideas, promote collaborations and stimulate discussion among young researchers in a friendly and exciting setting.

We will have four keynote lectures from invited speakers: Jean Gruenberg, Patrick Caswell, Maya Schuldiner and Corinne Albiges-Rizo that will cover different aspects of organelle biogenesis, membrane trafficking and cell migration. Most of the talks will be given by Ph.D. students and postdocs, selected from submitted abstracts.

For detailed information please visit the meeting website.

We are very much looking forward to welcoming you to Turin.

The Organising Commitee

Sara Colombo, Paola Defilippi, Letizia Lanzetti, Eelko Van Anken.
