1st IDPfun2 International Conference


Buenos Aires
,Argentina
14 April 2025
16 April 2025

The first IDPfun2 International Conference will take place in Buenos Aires, Argentina, from April 14 to 16, 2025. This event will bring together experts in bioinformatics, structural biology, and computational sciences from Europe and Argentina, fostering collaborations and knowledge exchange. 

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), which constitute abundant components of eukaryotic proteomes, play a key role in  physiological and pathological mechanisms. The first international Conference is titled “Unravelling the complexity of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins: Technological Innovations and Future Prospectives”. The event will cover the state-of-the-art AI-based computational technology and novel data to enhance the characterization of IDPs and their molecular behaviour.  Emphasis will also be placed on exploring  alternative molecular and evolutionary contexts, offering a comprehensive view of their complexity and significance.

Participating to the 1st IDPfun2 conference

This conference is open to the general public; however, only IDPfun2 members will have the opportunity to present their work.

The main conference will feature:

  • Talks by Principal Investigators from the consortium, who have been personally invited.
  • Presentations by young researchers and prospective seconded staff members, selected based on their submitted abstracts.

Details on submission deadlines and forms are provided below.


In addition, the conference will include a scientific matchmaking event in the form of a poster session, in order to allow all consortium members to meet and network and to promote the organization of secondments, matching labs and researchers based on the background of each prospect secondee. This session is open to everyone, with a special emphasis on young researchers. Participants are encouraged to present posters highlighting their scientific interests and the key projects they are currently working on. A poster template is available, and posters will be printed by the organizers and provided to participants at no cost. Further details on the submission deadline and process can be found below.
