Abstract Topics

Play an active part in the scientific programme by presenting your work at the 48th FEBS Congress! Read the call for late-breaking abstracts here.

Submissions of abstracts across the spectrum of the molecular life sciences are welcome. During abstract submission, please select one topic from the categories below that best describes the content of your abstract: topics will be used for reviewing and indexing purposes, and assignment of poster display at the event.
