The International AMP Network
The mission of iAMPNet, is to promote research on antimicrobial & host defence peptides by providing a global platform to connect trainees and researchers at individual and institutional levels, to facilitate mentoring opportunities for students and early career researchers, and highlight emerging concepts and themes in antimicrobial and host defence peptide research.

SFM's 8th International Symposium on AMPs
​
June 5-7, 2024
​
AMP2024 will bring together the world’s leading experts in the field to discuss the most recent research advances on: a) the discovery, biosynthesis pathways and bioengineering of novel antimicrobial peptides, b) the mechanisms of antimicrobial activities and bacterial resistance, c) immune modulation by antimicrobial peptides, d) the interplay between antimicrobial peptides & microbiota, and e) antimicrobial peptides as an ecological and evolutionary point of view.

Cell-Penetrating Peptides:
Next generation delivery systems
​
June 10-12, 2024
Montpellier, France
​
This 3-days international symposium will focus on:
-
Design and synthesis of cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs), peptide-based nanoparticles, and other peptide-based delivery systems
-
Biophysical, biochemical, and/or cell biology approaches to study their interaction with model and/or biological membranes
-
n vivo studies and therapeutic/clinical applications of peptide-based delivery systems
37th European Peptide Symposium
​
​
August 25-27, 2024
Florence, Italy
​
The symposium will feature all the relevant aspects of peptide science: from new synthetic methods to emerging technologies, including structural and conformational studies, with focus on material, biological, and therapeutic applications.
​
Next IMAP meeting in King's College London, U.K.
​
September 2-4, 2024
