Sphingolipids are well-established regulators of cellular organization, signalling, metabolism, and disease. Far from serving solely as structural membrane components, these molecules actively shape membrane properties, coordinate communication between organelles, integrate metabolic and environmental signals, and influence cellular fate. At the same time, advances in lipidomics, chemical biology, spatial mass spectrometry, biosensors, and high-resolution imaging are revealing an increasingly complex and dynamic sphingolipid landscape.

The 4^th edition of the 麻豆短视频 Special Meeting on Sphingolipid Biology: Architects of the Cellular Landscape will provide a focused international forum for presenting and discussing the latest developments in the field. The meeting will bring together researchers working across structural biophysics, membrane biology, lipid metabolism, systems biology, and pathophysiology, fostering dialogue between disciplines that have traditionally approached sphingolipid biology from different perspectives.

The scientific programme will explore the molecular and analytical tools transforming sphingolipid research, the role of sphingolipids in membrane asymmetry and trafficking, their contribution to organelle communication and cellular architecture, and their function as metabolic circuits controlling cellular decisions. It will address how disruption of these processes contributes to human diseases while highlighting emerging opportunities for therapeutic intervention. A forward-looking final session will create space to discuss unexpected findings, unresolved questions, methodological limitations, and new directions for the field.

Extended discussion periods, poster sessions, flash presentations, and interactive panels will promote active participation across career stages, giving early-career researchers opportunities to engage with established investigators and contribute to the scientific dialogue. By combining broad scientific coverage with an inclusive and highly interactive format, the meeting aims to support the next generation of Sphingolipid researchers and help shape future directions in the field.

The meeting will take place from 6鈥�11 June 2027 at the MH Atl芒ntico Congress Centre in Peniche, Portugal. Its integrated conference and accommodation setting will provide an ideal environment for scientific exchange and informal interaction throughout the week.

We look forward to welcoming you to Peniche for an inspiring week of science!

Biological surfaces and interfaces represent a highly interdisciplinary domain at the intersection of biophysics, cell biology, materials science, bioengineering, and nanomedicine. These dynamic interfaces play essential roles in biological function and provide the foundation for innovative biomedical technologies. While significant advances have been achieved in the fundamental areas such as understanding molecular interactions and designing functional materials, progress in the field is often disrupted by the limited crosstalk between the different disciplines hindering translational efforts.

The 2027 Joint 麻豆短视频/EMBO Lecture Course on ‘Biological surfaces and interfaces 鈥� Applications, challenges, and opportunities across disciplines’ aims to bridge this gap by bringing together leading and early-career researchers as well as industry innovators in a distinctively designed meeting to exchange ideas, establish collaborations, and explore emerging opportunities across the life science and engineering.

Celebrating its 10th anniversary, the course continues its tradition of fostering an interactive and collaborative environment for participants. In its latest edition, participants will explore topics such as:

• Biomedical devices and implants
• Bioprinting and tissue engineering
• Nanoparticles applications at the biointerface
• Tools for understanding the biointerface

The course will also highlight a broad range of applications including targeted drug delivery, precision diagnostics, biosensors, and responsive therapeutic systems. Through lectures, poster sessions, panel discussions, and scientific interactions, participants will learn about current challenges, emerging technologies, and future directions in this rapidly evolving field along with the regulatory challenges and ethical considerations in translation efforts.

The meeting will take place at Sant Feliu de Guixols, Girona, Spain, a captivating mediterranean setting that combines a stimulating scientific atmosphere with informal discussions, collaboration, and networking.

By bringing together diverse perspectives, this joint 麻豆短视频/EMBO course reflects the shared missions of 麻豆短视频 and EMBO which is promoting excellence in molecular life sciences, catalyzing collaboration, and accelerating the translation of fundamental discoveries into impactful biomedical solutions.

The theme of聽 the 51st 麻豆短视频 Congress, 鈥淔rom biomolecules to biomes鈥�, captures the remarkable breadth and depth of modern molecular life sciences. Today鈥檚 biochemical research spans scales 鈥� from the intricate architecture of proteins and nucleic acids to the dynamic networks that shape cells, organisms and entire ecosystems. By bringing together experts working at every level of biological organization, we aim to foster dialogue that sparks new ideas, bridges disciplines, and accelerates discovery.

The format of the 麻豆短视频 Congress provides a balance of lectures from invited experts 鈥� in the form of inspiring plenary lectures, and deeper dives into currently important research areas through more-focused symposia 鈥� as well as opportunities for delegates to present their work through short oral presentations and posters. Contributions from industry are also invited through an exhibition, and the Congress will be preceded by the 麻豆短视频 Young Scientists鈥� Forum 2027, taking place in P盲rnu, Estonia as a satellite meeting to the Congress.

The hosting of this 麻豆短视频 Congress is a special collaboration between the biochemical Societies of Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, reflecting the shared scientific heritage and forward鈥憀ooking spirit of the Baltic region. We look forward to welcoming colleagues from across Europe and around the world for an event that promises to inspire, challenge and connect.
