The members of the DFG-funded Research Training Group 2771 – Humans and Microbes invite scientists from all over the world to join our International Symposium Cell and Structural Biology of Host Pathogen Interaction from 10 – 12 Sept 2025 in Hamburg, Germany.

Humans and Microbes aims to elucidate how human pathogenic bacteria, viruses and parasites utilise, modulate or subdue large molecular host-pathogen complexes and membrane trafficking in host cells. Infectious diseases cause about 20% of all deaths worldwide, and emerging infections and pandemics can threaten public health and economic stability. We believe that a fundamental understanding of host pathogen interaction at the molecular level and its transmission to the next generation of scientists will pave the way for new treatment strategies against bacterial, viral and parasitic infectious diseases alike.
