17th ÖGMBT Annual Meeting
The 17th ÖGMBT Annual Meeting will take place in Innsbruck at the Centre for Chemistry and Biomedicine (CCB) from September 24-26, 2025. We warmly welcome you to an engaging and thought-provoking meeting under the theme:
"From Molecules to Organisms – Interactions and Interventions"
This year’s meeting is designed to bridge the gap between fundamental life sciences, translational research, and applied fields. It will provide a dynamic and interactive platform to showcase cutting-edge research, featuring presentations from leading scientists, lively discussions, and extensive networking opportunities.
Among the key themes explored will be:
From Cells to Organisms: Understanding Biological Interactions
Discover how biological mechanisms function across organelles, cells, tissues, and organisms, adapting through development, health, and disease. Topics include stem cells, cell cycle, cancer biology, and cell death.
Bridging Knowledge for Scientific Progress
Explore how interdisciplinary collaboration and advanced techniques, such as machine learning, protein and cell dynamics, and cell adhesion mechanics, drive scientific innovation.
Translating Basic Research into Innovation
Learn how discoveries in RNA regulation, lipids, and natural products fuel advancements in drug development, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals.
Environmental and Health Interactions
Examine how chemical exposures, microbiomes, and climate impact health, with discussions on toxicology, risk assessment, infection, immunity, and antimicrobial resistance.
Metabolic and Neurological Health Across the Lifespan
Investigate how aging, metabolism, mental health, and exercise shape biological processes, with insights into neurological and metabolic disorders and psychiatric conditions.
What Can You Expect from the Meeting?
We are honored to welcome renowned international scientists who will present their latest discoveries and engage in stimulating discussions with attendees.
A highlight of the ÖGMBT Annual Meeting is the Life Sciences Research Awards Austria and the PhD Life Sciences Awards Austria, recognizing outstanding contributions from Austria’s young researchers. We look forward to their inspiring presentations.
Childcare services will be available to support participants with families.
We anticipate an exciting exchange of ideas, interdisciplinary collaborations, and meaningful discussions—connecting scientists across disciplines and career stages to push the frontiers of life science.
