The 6th International Iberian Biophysics Congress and X Iberoamerican Congress of Biophysics is international conference continuing the tradition of SBE meetings of almost two decades. The 2018 edition is organized under the auspices of the Spanish Biophysical Society (SBE), the Portuguese Biophysical Society (SPBf) and the Latin American Federation of Biophysical Societies (LAFeBS). IIBC-2018 will be held in Castellón (Spain) on 20-22 June 2018, in the campus facilities of Universitat Jaume I. (http:// www.uji.es).
The IIBC-2018 scientific program includes several Plenary Lectures, as well as Symposia on the following topics:
Physics in Biology
Protein Structure, Dynamics and Function
Membrane structure and function
Channels, Receptors and Transporters
Cellular Biophysics
Nucleic Acids and Supramolecular Complexes
Computational and System Biophysics
These selected topics cover the main research areas of Biophysics. Symposia will host invited talks and also short communications selected from submitted abstracts with preference for young researchers. Following the tradition of previous Meetings, a New and Notable Workshop will take place in the morning of the first day. The organizers are committed to make the Poster Sessions a place for networking and the occasion of fruitful and lively discussions in a relaxed atmosphere. Two posters sessions have been scheduled to allow enough time for participants to discuss the poster presentation with the authors. Reduced registration fees will apply to participants who are SBE members. Moreover, a number of grants will be available to encourage young researchers’ participation.
