20th Joint Meeting "Signal Transduction –
Receptors, Mediators and Genes" of the DGZ study group
‘Signal Transduction’ and the Signal Transduction Society (STS)
Dear colleagues,
Looking back at nineteen successful conferences of the DGZ study group “Signal
Transduction” with the STS in the past, I would like to cordially invite all of you to
celebrate our 20th “Joint Meeting Signal Transduction – Receptors, Mediators and
Genes" with us.
This special anniversary event is scheduled for November 9th to 11th, 2016 and will
again take place at the Leonardo Hotel in the historical city of Weimar. As in recent
years, the joint meeting will be organized by STS in association with study groups
of the DGZ, the German Societies for Immunology (DGfI) and Pharmacology (DGP),
and the Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (GBM). Other participating
consortia include the SFB 854 (Magdeburg) and the Netherlands Society for Bioche-
mistry and Molecular Biology (NVBMB).
The usual plenary workshops will serve as platforms for individual consortia to pre-
sent their activities to the signalling community. Moreover, the special focus “Cells
and Molecules in Motion” was chosen as a common denominator of this year’s mee-
ting to underline the interdisciplinary concept of the meeting series. The whole team
carefully selected a number of renowned Keynote Speakers to hopefully please sci-
entists from all areas of signalling research.
Detailed information on confirmed speakers and the STS/CCS awardee 2016, regis-
tration and abstract submission, awards and travel grants, sponsors and ideas to
celebrate this 20th anniversary are available at
