Cells constantly surveil and monitor their proteins to ensure proper function. These processes, coined under the term proteostasis, span multiple steps from protein synthesis to folding and degradation. Extensive research in recent years has provided molecular insights into the mechanisms underlying proteostasis and its links to conditions such as neurodegeneration and aging.

The 2025 Joint FEBS/EMBO Lecture Course “Susan Lindquist School on Proteostasis” provides a comprehensive overview of past and current work in the proteostasis field to the next generation of scientists. The program includes review lectures, presentations on upcoming science, career development sessions, and numerous opportunities to interact with leaders in the proteostasis field.

The event website is under development. Sign up on the EMBO website here for an alert when the event website is launched.
