Meet with a Cell Press editor

Authors whose abstracts are accepted to the Cell Symposium: Biological function in 3D: Structure, dynamics, and AI, will have the opportunity for 1:1 interaction with our Cell Press editors on the morning of November 5, 2026.

Interested? Book a meeting here.

• Mingjie Zhang, Southern University of Science & Technology, China
  

• Nieng Yan, Shenzhen Medical Academy of Research & Translation (SMART), China
  

• Karin Kühnel, Editor-in-Chief, Structure, Cell Press
  
• “Please join us at our exciting Cell Press Symposium to learn about the latest breakthroughs in our understanding of the inner workings of the cell at different scales: from the structure and dynamics of individual biomolecules and their complexes to cellular compartments, the architecture of cell organelles, host-pathogen interactions and tissue organisation.
  We will also discuss advances in protein design and future developments in structural and computational biology. Our Cell Press Symposium will also be a great opportunity to network with our distinguished speakers.
  We hope to see you in Shenzhen!”

• Lara Szewczak, Editor-in-chief, Molecular Cell and Consulting editor, Cell, Cell Press
  
• “Advances in visualizing, predicting and designing proteins and multi-component complexes are changing the kinds of questions researchers can ask about the systems that fascinate them. Questions that seemed intractable only a few years ago are now open for inquiry – whether they’re about individual molecules, pathways, organelles or whole organisms.
  Join us in Shenzhen to get a view on how leaders across fields are integrating new technologies and approaches into their work. This symposium aims to bring researchers together to promote cross-pollination of ideas and to showcase key biological insights that come from seeing dynamic biomolecules.”
