About the symposium

We were excited to host an academic conference focused on the transformative role of molecular tools in cell biology. Over the past few decades, innovations such as fluorescent proteins and proximity labeling enzymes have significantly advanced our understanding of cellular mechanisms and subcellular landscapes. These molecular tools have enabled researchers to visualize and manipulate cellular processes with unprecedented precision, leading to breakthroughs that have reshaped our approach to cell biology.

By gathering external experts and internal investigators, we created an engaging platform to share knowledge and inspire new ideas. This gathering not only served to showcase the potential of molecular tools but also aimed to engage a broader scientific audience and attract attention to the outstanding work of our colleagues.

This event was hosted in a hybrid format, giving you the option to attend in-person. In-person attendees had the opportunity to engage directly with speakers, network with colleagues, present their research, and experience the one-of-a-kind creative atmosphere on the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital campus in Memphis, TN.

As always, we also welcomed virtual attendees to join us from around the world.
