About the meeting
Biological membranes play a central role in creating a responsive barrier allowing communication with the cellular interior and its exterior to govern a wide variety of processes essential for cellular homeostasis. In addition to mammalian cell membranes, unravelling the complexity of bacterial and viral membranes is vital to our understanding of host-pathogen interactions while developing intervention strategies to mitigate virulent infection pathways. We have been organizing meetings in the area of biomembranes at IISc since 2012 and this is the 6th in a series of meetings aimed at bringing together the researchers working in this area. The meetings are held in an informal setting with ample time for discussion and exchange of ideas with a focus on encouraging students and post-docs to actively participate in both poster presentations and invited talks. With increasing access to supercomputing facilities and rapid advances in superresolution and single molecule experimental techniques, events at the cell membrane interface are being interrogated with unprecedented precision. In this meeting the program aims to bring together researchers working on mammalian, bacterial and viral membranes to discuss recent finding as well as elucidate future challenges in this exciting area of biomembrane research.
