The Faraday discussions meeting emphasized the importance of peptides as model systems in membrane biophysics and biology research, and highlighted the enduring relevance of exploring membrane biophysics and biology through peptide-membrane interactions.
The Faraday discussions meeting on peptide-membrane interactions was designed with the goal of repositioning peptides as powerful model systems that are indispensable in contemporary membrane biophysics and biology research. The meeting, originally scheduled for September 2020, was finally held in a virtual format during September 8th-10th, 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The meeting saw enthusiastic participation by similar to 120 scientists from 23 countries. There were 23 talks delivered during the four sessions and 25 posters presented in two poster sessions (the published volume can be accessed online). The meeting drew attention to the multitude of open questions that persist in our understanding of the behavior of membrane peptides and proteins in spite of nearly half-a-century of intensive interdisciplinary research, and was beyond successful in throwing into sharp relief the enduring relevance of exploring membrane biophysics and biology through the looking glass of peptide-membrane interactions.
