Welcome

We’re delighted to invite you to the FEBS Advanced Course, ”360-degree Lysosome; from structure to genomics, from function to disease-update”, which will be held in Kusadası in October, 2022. This course will focus on lysosome biology and function, new metabolic and signalling insights into the function of lysosomes, pathophysiological mechanisms of lysosomal dysfunction in living cells. This course will bring together Basic Scientists & lab researchers & clinicians working on this unique field on the molecular and cellular aspects of lysosomal storage diseases.

This workshop intends to create a scientific platform to discuss advances in the field as well as to establish novel networks among the participants for future collaborations. In order to maximize the opportunities for interactions between young researchers and all participants, the workshop is planned in a dynamic format of plenaries, panels, round-table discussion, poster and oral presentation sessions. A specific meeting slot is allocated for Breakfast & Young Scientists Professional Development. This meeting is a preferential slot which will deal with hot issues in the postgraduate education and further academic and/or industrial careers of young scientists.

Social events (Welcome party, Ephesus& Virgin Mary’s house tour) will create social networks and fruitful interactions during the course.

We are indebted very much to FEBS for their great support for the meeting and Youth Travel Fund. In addition, we wish to express our thanks to Turkish Biochemical Society, EFLM and IFCC for their auspices.

Our previous FEBS-Advanced Lecture Course on Lysosomes was completed with huge success in 2014, we were honoured to receive the positive and rewarding feedbacks from all participants. On behalf of the Organizing Committee,  we promise a productive and enjoyable meeting with a high scientific level.
