IUPS 2024 Beacon Meeting

Rhythmic activity and its disorders in muscle and brain

October 25-28th 2024, Tutzing , Germany

'' It’s all about rhythm: get a fresh view on basic signalling, physiology, biophysics and neural processes guided by the beacon lit of expert speakers highlighting mechanisms of rhythmicity in different organs

'' All participants will be outside their scientific comfort zones for several sessions and encouraged to take a new way of looking at their research questions.

"IUPS beacons are intended to be small focused meetings on a timely topic in physiology that will provide participants with an immersive and interactive scientific exchange of ideas that is especially aimed at benefitting early career researchers"

Topics will include circadian rhythms, pacemaking in cardiac and smooth muscles, rhythmicity in blood vessels, control of rhythmicity in breathing, spontaneous neuronal activity, and ion channels in health and and diseases
