Symposia and Guest Lectures
The regularly scheduled Symposia and Guest Lectures focus on emerging topics in the field of membrane biology and the structure, function, and dynamics of membrane-associated macromolecular complexes. Conferences hosted by CRC 1507 connect world-leading scientists from diverse backgrounds (biochemistry, biophysics, chemistry, cell and structural biology, medicine) with the local research community.
Retreats
Annual retreats outside Frankfurt are traditionally seen as a great opportunity to present and discuss project data and student progress in a focused, yet pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. By providing insights into current research, these events also provide a platform to strengthen the corporate identity of all CRC members and to enhance collaborations.
Every two years, the IRTG also organizes PhD retreats, where students at different stages of their doctorate present their research projects.

The collaboration of Projects P08 and P18 resulted in another new publication released in PNAS: Using quantitative single-molecule imaging, this work provides an antigen-specific quantitative nanoscale analysis of MHC-I organization in human dendritic cells and introduces a generalizable framework for molecular counting of antigen presentation at single-molecule resolution. (“Quantitative nanoscale imaging shows peptide–MHC I complexes are monomeric and spatially regulated in human dendritic cells”, https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2615838123)
