This year’s Cytoskeletal Club will be held on 21-23 September 2026 at the Liblice Castle, as a joint meeting with the Topical Partner Cluster “Cytoskeletal Dynamics Across Scales” of the Dresden International Graduate School for Interdisciplinary Life Sciences (DIGS-ILS).
The 31st Cytoskeletal Club is organized by the Institute of Physiology (IPHYS), the Institute of Biotechnology (IBT), the Institute of Molecular Genetics (IMG) of the Czech Academy of Sciences, and the Dresden International Graduate School for Interdisciplinary Life Sciences (DIGS-ILS). The meeting will consist of plenary talks given by invited speakers. Additional oral presentations will be selected from submitted abstracts, with the emphasis on PhD students and Post-Docs.
The 31st Cytoskeletal Club aims at bringing together the cytoskeletal communities from Prague and Dresden. The topic is focused – but not limited – to any biological and biophysical aspect of cytoskeleton function: cell division, signalling, motility, structure, biophysical characteristics etc. It is traditionally a three-day meeting full of informal talks and discussion about the latest work from labs with an interest in the cytoskeleton.
We look forward seeing you in Liblice.
The organising team:
Martin Balaštík (IPHYS)
Zdeněk Lánský (IBT)
Teije Middelkoop (IMG)
Stefan Diez (DIGS-ILS)
