Theme
This Swiss Yeast Mini-Symposium 2010 will cover recent advances in yeast cell biology with a particular focus on the following four major topics:
Cell Growth Control
Autophagy
Membrane and Lipid Dynamics
Control of Gene Expression

In each of the four sessions, 3-4 internationally renowned keynote speakers will present overviews of their corresponding research interests and illustrate their own most recent scientific advances. These lectures will be complemented with shorter talks, which will be selected amongst the participating students and postdocs. Moreover, each participant will also have the opportunity to present his or her own work during poster sessions.
The mini-symposium lasts two days and should be an exciting event for both undergraduate and graduate students, who will also have the possibility to interact with speakers and make personal contacts during the days and an evening dinner. The mini-symposium is open to everybody and we expect that a large part of the Swiss yeast community will join the event to exchange both scientific ideas and the most recent methodological and technical advances in yeast cell biology.
