The Biology of Polyamines and Their Implication in Diseases

The polyamines GRS will host early career researchers representing diverse fields (cell biology, drug development, plant and mammalian biology, parasitology and infectious diseases, and cancer biology) converging on polyamine metabolism. The upcoming 2025 Polyamines GRS is committed to fostering the participation of trainees at the GRS from a scientifically and generally diverse group. Except for a Keynote address, the presentations will be exclusively held by graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, and extensive discussions will follow each presentation. An additional poster session will provide further opportunities to deepen scientific exchange and new connections. The main program consists of four scientific sessions chaired by the discussion leaders. Speakers in each session will be selected from submitted abstracts and are organized around the general themes of basic and translational research. The GRS will offer sufficient discussion and networking time with the four senior scientists, answering questions from the junior investigators. The GRS will ensure a balanced speaker list based on gender, geographic origins, underrepresented groups, and academic age. Additionally, exceptional talks will be invited to present again during the adjacent GRC to a broader audience.
