IMAP 2027: 14th International Conference on Antimicrobial Peptides

Antimicrobial peptides vs antibiotic resistance

• September 1 to 3, 2027
• Centre for Biotechnology and Biomedicine (BBZ), University of Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany
• Peptide Conferences
• AMP researchers, microbiologists, early career scientists

Overview

The international meeting dedicated to antimicrobial and host defence peptides, their mechanisms, synthesis and medical use against resistant infections. Hosted locally by Ralf Hofmann.

What's on the agenda

• Mechanisms of antimicrobial and host defence peptides
• Synthesis and clinical deployment against resistant bugs
• Bursaries for PhD students and postdocs (free registration and accommodation)

Why it matters for recovery

Infection is the biggest worry after surgery. Antimicrobial peptides are where a lot of the wound and post-op research is quietly heading.
