Dr. Rosa Barrio, Chair of the Action attended the 2nd International Insect Hormone Workshop held in Creete (Greece) between the 12th and the 18th of July 2015. The meeting was an opportunity to join researchers around the world interested in the molecular biology and physiology of insect hormones, including – but not limited to – ecdysteroids, juvenile hormones and insulin. It was an ideal platform to discuss the receptor biology in invertebrate model systems, such as nuclear receptors, RTKs and GPCRs.
In this sense, this meeting represented a unique opportunity to share the activities and the objectives of the PROTEOSTASIS Action and the achievements reached so far.
