Europhosphatase 2017: Phosphatases in Cell Fates and Decisions

Europhosphatase 2017: Phosphatases in Cell Fates and Decisions is organized by European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) and would be held during Jul 23 - 28, 2017 at Campus Jussieu-Pierre and Marie Curie University, Paris, Ile-de-France, France.

Phosphatases are critical components of cell signaling pathways controlling physiological events such as cell division or cell fate decision and the missregulation of its activity has been linked to several human diseases. Europhosphatase 2017 will put special emphasis on phosphatases in cell fate decision. Major issues like neuronal and hematopoietic specification of stem cells by phosphatases will be tackled along with a state-of-the-art overview of recent discoveries on the role phosphatases in new signaling pathways and its regulation.

Sessions:

• Phosphatases and cancer
• Phosphatases and cell cycle
• Phosphatases and cancer stem cells
• Phosphatase structure and function
• Phosphatases and nervous system
• Phosphatases in immune response
• Phosphatases, development and cell fate decision
• Phosphatases and cell transport and signaling
A number of abstracts submitted to the meeting will be selected for oral presentation.
