Mid-South Biophysics and Quantitative Biology 2026

Researchers across the Mid-South region meet for graduate-student research presentations, invited lectures, posters and a student–principal-investigator roundtable. The scientific programme includes mechanisms of nucleic-acid unwinding by the DEAD-box helicase DDX41 and how biomolecular condensates create internal environments that promote or suppress biochemical processes. The meeting welcomes undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and faculty. It runs 08:30–17:30 Central Standard Time; event and poster registration closes 31 October 2026.
