The XII International Conference on Fe-S Proteins: Function, Biogenesis, and Regulation will be held September 28-October 2/2026, at the University of Gdansk, Gdansk, Poland. The conference will take place in Novotel Gdansk Marina.

The first eleven meetings of this conference series have attracted usually 100-120 participants from all over the world and from a range of research disciplines, including chemists, biochemists, spectroscopists, molecular biologists, geneticists, and physicians. Previous meetings have been held in alternating locations in the US and Europe every two years and included Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA, USA (2000), U. of Marburg, Marburg, Germany (2002), U. of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, USA (2005 and 2018), Villard de Lans, France (2007), U. of Georgia, Athens, GA (2009), Girton College, Cambridge, UK (2011), U. of South Carolina, Columbia, SC, USA (2013), Bergamo, Italy (2015), Gulf of St Tropez, St. Maxine, France (2022), Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, NC, USA (2024)

The upcoming meeting in 2026  will focus on 1) sulfur mobilization and iron trafficking, 2) Fe-S cluster assembly and trafficking, 3) Fe-S clusters as sensors and regulators, 4) Fe-S proteins structure and function, 5) applications of Fe-S clusters in medicine, biotechnology, and industry.  

We are looking forward to interacting with you in Gdansk, Poland.
