Όπως κάθε χρονιά, το Συνέδριο φέρνει σε επαφή ερευνητικές ομάδες Ελλήνων Επιστημόνων που δραστηριοποιούνται σε διάφορους τομείς των Βιοεπιστημών, στην Ελλάδα αλλά και στο εξωτερικό, συμβάλλει στην αλληλεπίδραση ή και στις προοπτικές συνεργασίας μεταξύ τους, αναδεικνύει σημαντικές προσπάθειες των νέων Ελλήνων ερευνητών και δίνει τον σφυγμό από το πρόσφατο ερευνητικό έργο καταξιωμένων ερευνητών από την Ελλάδα και τον διεθνή χώρο. Το Συνέδριο είναι ανοικτό σε όλη τη θεματολογία της σύγχρονης Βιοχημείας και Μοριακής Βιολογίας. Μεταξύ των θεματικών ενοτήτων του Συνεδρίου περιλαμβάνονται: η Δομή και Λειτουργία Μακρομορίων, η Ανάπτυξη και Κυτταρική Επικοινωνία, η Κυτταρική Οργάνωση και Λειτουργία, η Γονιδιακή Έκφραση και η Βιολογία του RNA, η Μοριακή και Κυτταρική Βάση των Ασθενειών, η Βιολογία Συστημάτων, η Βιοπληροφορική και η Βιοτεχνολογία. George Simos Στο φετινό Συνέδριο συμμετέχουν ως προσκεκλημένοι ομιλητές διακεκριμένοι επιστήμονες από την Ελλάδα και το εξωτερικό, όπως οι: Sir Peter Ratcliffe (Oxford University), Anne Osbourn (John Innes Centre), David Stuart (Oxford University), Αντώνης Κορομηλάς (McGill University), Όθων Ηλιόπουλος (Harvard Medical School), Νίκος Κυρπίδης (Joint Genome Institute, Berkley), Γεώργιος Σπυρούλιας (Πανεπιστήμιο Πατρών), Χρήστος Τσατσάνης (Πανεπιστήμιο Κρήτης), Χρήστος Ζέρβας (IIBEAA), Κατερίνα Κατσάνη (Δημοκρίτειο Πανεπιστήμιο) και Γρηγόρης Αμούτζιας (Πανεπιστήμιο Θεσσαλίας). Το Συνέδριο περιλαμβάνει και μια ειδική συνεδρία αφιερωμένη στην μνήμη του Καθηγητή Φώτη Καφάτου, στην οποία συμμετέχουν ως ομιλητές οι Iain Mattaj (EMBL), Σπύρος Γεωργάτος (Πανεπιστήμιο Ιωαννίνων) και Γιώργος Χριστοφίδης (Imperial College, London).

Presidents greeting Dear Colleagues, It is our pleasure to welcome you to the 69 th Annual Conference of the Hellenic Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (HSBMB) which is taking place in Larissa, at Hotel Imperial, from November 23 rd to November 25 th, 208. As every year, the HSBMB Conference is bringing together and contributes to the interaction between research teams of Greek scientists working in various fields of life sciences, both in Greece and abroad, presents the work of young Greek researchers and highlights the recent research advances of nationally and internationally established scientists. The 69 th HSBMB Conference is open to all modern fields of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology including Structure and Function of Macromolecules, Development & Cellular Signaling, Cellular Organization and Function, Gene Expression & RNA Biology, Molecular & Cellular Basis of Human Disease, Systems Biology & Bioinformatics and Biotechnology. Renowned scientists from Greece and abroad participate in this year s Conference as invited speakers: Sir Peter Ratcliffe Nikos Karamanos (Oxford University), Anne Osbourn (John Innes Centre), David Stuart (Oxford University), Antonis Koromilas (McGill University), Othon Iliopoulos (Harvard Medical School), Nikos Kyrpides (Joint Genome Institute, Berkley), George Spyroulias (University of Patras), Christos Tsatsanis (University of Crete), Christos Zervas (BRFAA), Katerina Katsani (Democritus University of Thrace) and Gregoris Amoutzias (University of Thessaly). The Conference also includes a Special Session devoted to honoring the memory of Prof. Fotis Kafatos (ex-director of EMBL and ERC) who recently passed away. Speakers of this Session will be Iain Mattaj (EMBL, Heidelberg), Spyros Georgatos (University of Ioannina) and George Christophides (Imperial College London). The Conference will also like to honor the memory of the recently deceased members of HSBMB, Ioannis Georgatsos (Professor Emeritus, AUTH), Dimitrios Kalpaxis (Professor of Biochemistry, Univ. of Patras), an active professor and researcher that prematurely passed away, as well as Georgios Paleologos (Medical School, Athens University) and Eleftherios Sideris (NCSR «Demokritos»). All of them had a great contribution to the development of the Biochemical Science in Greece and the founding, establishment and subsequent success of HSBMB. Linked to the 69 th HSBMB Conference, the Forum of Young Scientists of the HSBMB, a previously very successful event, is also organized for the 6 th time by an independent committee of young researchers.
