International Conference on Genetics, Cellular & Molecular Biology on February 03-05, 2027 in Lisbon, Portugal

International Conference on Genetics, Cellular & Molecular Biology February 03, 2027 - Lisbon, Portugal

LISBON 33rd International Conference on Genetics, Cellular & Molecular Biology (LGCMB-27) scheduled on Feb. 3-5, 2027 Lisbon (Portugal) is for the engineers, practitioners, scientists, researchers, scholars, and students from all around the world and it also includes the industry people to present ongoing research activities, and hence to foster research relations between Academia and industry. The conference is being organized by Emirates Research Publication (ERPUB) operting under Pilares D Elegancia LDA (Portugal). This conference provides opportunities for the delegates to share new ideas and application experiences face to face, to establish business or research relations and to find global partners for future collaboration. All the submitted conference papers will be peer reviewed by the program/technical committees of the Conference. 

Call for papers/Topics

Topics of Interest for Submission include, but are Not Limited to:

1. Molecular Biology:

This area focuses on the structure, function, and regulation of macromolecules essential to life, centering on the "Central Dogma" of molecular biology.

Nucleic Acid Structure and Biochemistry

DNA double helix structure, alternative conformations (A, B, Z DNA)

RNA types (mRNA, tRNA, rRNA, snRNA, miRNA, lncRNA) and secondary structures

Nucleosome structure, chromatin packing, and histone modifications

DNA Replication and Repair

Mechanism of semi-conservative replication (initiation, elongation, termination)

Replication fork dynamics, DNA polymerases, and okazaki fragments

Telomere maintenance and telomerase function

DNA damage and repair pathways (Mismatch repair, Base Excision, Nucleotide Excision, Double-Strand Break repair)

Transcription and RNA Processing

Prokaryotic vs. eukaryotic transcription mechanisms

Promoters, enhancers, transcription factors, and RNA polymerases

Post-transcriptional modifications: 5' capping, 3' polyadenylation, and constitutive/alternative splicing

Translation and Protein Synthesis

The genetic code, codon bias, and wobble hypothesis

Ribosome structure and the phases of translation (initiation, elongation, termination)

Post-translational modifications (phosphorylation, glycosylation, ubiquitination) and protein folding chaperones

2. Genetics: Heredity, Variation, and Regulation

Genetics bridges the gap between molecular mechanisms and organismal traits, exploring how genetic information is passed down and modified.

Transmission (Classical) Genetics

Mendelian laws of inheritance (segregation, independent assortment)

Non-Mendelian inheritance: Incomplete dominance, codominance, lethal alleles, and epistasis

Sex-linked inheritance, pedigree analysis, and genetic mapping

Cytogenetics and Chromosomal Biology

Karyotyping and chromosome morphology

Chromosomal aberrations: Aneuploidy, polyploidy, deletions, duplications, inversions, and translocations

Meiotic recombination, non-disjunction, and crossing over

Gene Regulation and Epigenetics

Prokaryotic gene regulation (operon models like lac and trp)

Eukaryotic transcriptional regulation, chromatin remodeling, and pioneer factors

Epigenetic mechanisms: DNA methylation, genomic imprinting, and X-chromosome inactivation

Population and Evolutionary Genetics

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and forces causing deviation (mutation, migration, genetic drift, natural selection)

Quantitative genetics: Polygenic traits, heritability, and QTL mapping

Molecular evolution, phylogenetic analysis, and speciation

3. Cellular Biology: Structure, Function, and Dynamics

Cell biology studies the structural components of cells, how they maintain homeostasis, and how they interact with their environment.

Cellular Membranes and Transport

Fluid mosaic model, lipid raft composition, and membrane fluidity

Passive transport (simple and facilitated diffusion, osmosis)

Active transport (primary/secondary active transport, endocytosis, exocytosis)

Organelle Structure and Function

Nucleus: Nuclear envelope, pore complexes, and nucleolus

Endomembrane system: Rough/smooth endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and lysosomes

Energy transducers: Mitochondria (oxidative phosphorylation) and Chloroplasts (photosynthesis)

Peroxisomes, vacuoles, and proteasomes

Cytoskeleton and Cellular Motility

Microtubules, microfilaments (actin), and intermediate filaments

Motor proteins (kinesin, dynein, myosin) and intracellular transport

Cilia, flagella, and cell migration mechanisms

Cell Signaling and Communication

Types of signaling (autocrine, paracrine, endocrine, juxtacrine)

Receptor classes: G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), Receptor Tyrosine Kinases (RTKs), ion channel receptors, and intracellular receptors

Second messengers (cAMP, Ca2+, IP3/DAG) and kinase cascades (MAPK, PI3K/Akt)

4. Interrelated and Interdisciplinary Subtopics

These topics represent the massive overlap where molecular mechanisms directly dictate cellular behavior and genetic outcomes.

The Cell Cycle, Mitosis, and Meiosis

Phases of the cell cycle (G1, S, G2, M)

Cell cycle checkpoints (G1/S, G2/M, spindle assembly) and cyclins/CDKs

Mechanisms of mitosis (somatic division) vs. meiosis (germline division and genetic diversity)

Cell Death, Aging, and Cancer Biology

Apoptosis (intrinsic and extrinsic pathways), necrosis, and autophagy

Cellular senescence, telomere shortening, and aging

Oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes (e.g., p53, Rb), and the hallmarks of cancer (metastasis, angiogenesis)

Developmental Biology and Stem Cells

Cell potency: Totipotency, pluripotency, multipotency

Embryonic stem cells vs. induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)

Morphogens, homeobox (Hox) genes, and pattern formation during development

Immunology and Host-Pathogen Interactions

Innate vs. adaptive immunity at the cellular level (T-cells, B-cells, macrophages)

V(D)J recombination (genetic rearrangement for antibody diversity)

Viral replication cycles and bacterial defense systems (e.g., CRISPR-Cas systems in nature)

Genomics, Proteomics, and Biotechnology

Recombinant DNA technology, cloning, and PCR

Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) and functional genomics

Genome editing technologies (CRISPR-Cas9, base editing)
