Biological Surfaces and Interfaces: biointerfaces at lipids, proteins and polymers 

June 8-13, 2025 

Sant Feliu de Guixols, Catalonia, Spain

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION CLOSING SOON (February 28th)

The conference will bring together senior and young researchers from diverse disciplines (chemistry, physics, biology, engineering, material science, medicine) studying interfaces between biological systems and artificial materials, and within biological systems (such as cell membranes and their model, proteins and peptides and biopolymers, etc). 

Historically, this conference has had a particularly strong focus on promoting interactions between the attendees, with plenty of time set aside for discussion – after the lectures, at the coffee breaks and during the poster sessions.
