Dear Friends and Colleagues,

we’d like to invite you to participate in the Fall Conference of the German Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (GBM) "Molecular Basis of Life" at the Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, which will take place in September 14th – 16th, 2022.

The conference is organized by Prof. Dr. Claus Seidel (Heinrich Heine University) in collaboration with several GBM study groups.

This meeting is intended to promote lively discussions at the crossroads of various fields of biochemistry such as biophysics, structural biology, bioenergetics, cell biology, bioinformatics and others.

Main topics are

• Biomolecules and their assemblies: from structure and dynamics to function
• Multiscale biochemistry of membranes and membrane proteins
• Energy transduction involving light harvesting, electron transfer and proton transfer
• Biophysical chemistry and cell biology of interfaces and functional phase separation
• Computational biophysics and biology
• Imaging molecules of life
• New technologies for molecules in Life Sciences
• Cell biology meets systems and synthetic biology
• Signal transduction and diseases

We look forward to your visit and an inspiring meeting!

Claus Seidel
(Head of the Organizing Committee)
