The 8th International Meeting on Yeast Apoptosis will bring together investigators from around the world to present and discuss research employing yeasts as model organisms to study regulated cell death and its role in stress responses, aging and development.
These sessions will cover a variety of topics, including:
- Fungal Cell Death pathways
- Mitochondrial function and physiology
- Caspase-dependent and independent apoptosis
- Autophagy/Mitophagy
- Protein aggregation and toxicity
- Cellular Ageing
- Antifungal activity and drug discovery
- Evolution of apoptosis
- The metabolism of cell death
