What is MBN2025?
The aim of this one-day meeting is to stimulate discussion between the many experimental and theoretical molecular biophysics researchers in the Northeastern United States. To increase the participation of younger scientists (undergraduates through junior faculty), the majority of the presentations will be selected from submitted abstracts, and there will also be a poster session. After having a great time at MBN2024 and MBN2019, we are looking forward to seeing more exciting science at MBN2025!
