Skoltech to host two conferences on multi-omics technologies and structural proteomics

Two back-to-back events will take place in Skoltech: International Conference on Multi-omics Technologies for Precision Medicine on November 22-23 and the 10th Symposium on Structural Proteomics on November 24-25. Specialists around the globe will join the meetings and share their expertise and results of research in these scientific fields in hybrid formats. 

The first conference is devoted to demonstrating the power of multi-omics for precision medicine. The participants will discuss how adding ‘omics approaches improves success rates in treating diseases such as cancer and revolutionizes personalized medicine.

The second conference on structural proteomics is dedicated to presenting the latest technology development and applications of structural proteomics. The program of the Symposium will cover such topics as cross-linking, HDX, covalent modification, limited proteolysis, ion mobility native MS, affinity labeling, protein structure modeling.

“Multi-omics technologies and structural proteomics are two of the scientific topics with the most significant potential to revolutionize medicine and science, especially when they are combined with artificial intelligence. We are proud to gather Russian and international speakers who are the leaders in these fields for both conferences. Сome join us for an exciting and productive event!” – invites Christoph Borchers, Head of Laboratory of Omics technologies and Big data for Personal Medicine and Health, Visiting Professor at Skoltech, the head of the Organizing Committee.

Skoltech to host the VI International Conference of Young Scientists in Solid state  chemistry of battery materials and a Science Art exhibition 

On November 12-16, Skoltech will host the sixth International conference of young scientists in solid state chemistry of battery materials. The conference will cover both theoretical and practical aspects of chemical principles and progress made in the rational design of battery materials. This annual event gives an opportunity for young scientists to represent their research and discuss the advances and problems with top scientists in the field. 

The Skoltech team organized the conference to put together the best young scientists in electrochemistry. Besides traditional lectures, poster sessions and networking, the participants will conduct practical work in the labs in three tracks. The researcher who will obtain the best results will get The Best Performance Award. 

This year, the conference will be adorned with the Science Art exhibition ”Area of High Resolution” – an experimental collaboration between modern artists and scientists. The authors offer to explore the connections between science, technology, and art inspired by electron microscopy images collected by scientists at Skoltech. The exhibition will take place at the Skoltech campus (area B4, third floor) on Nov. 12-16, 2021. Art curators: Mikhail Lipovskikh, artist, and Svetlana Lipovskikh, research scientist.
