GPCR Structure, Signaling and Physiology: Implications for Disease and Drug Discovery

The Molecular Pharmacology GRC/GRS is aimed at presenting and discussing the most exciting, cutting-edge advances in the rapidly moving field of molecular pharmacology with a particular focus on G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) research. The conference will provide a forum for interaction among scientists representing a wide range of research interests, from structural biology to clinical research, that is emerging from both academia and industry. In so doing we aim to encourage the pursuit of advances in our fundamental understanding of GPCR biology and to the translation of these findings to programs committed to the development of next generation GPCR-based medicines. In a program that includes new components to facilitate interaction and networking we aim to host a meeting that will encourage and educate junior and under-represented scientists, as well as scientists at all levels of seniority.
