Society of General Physiologists 79th Annual Meeting
MBL Public Events
Since 1946, one of the principal activities of SGP has been the organization of an annual meeting dedicated to an emerging topic of broad physiological significance. The 2026 SGP Annual Meeting will be the first ever SGP meeting to focus on the important topic of reproductive systems and disorders in both men and women. This meeting will include presenters focused on defining pathways and identifying targets and treatments for reproductive diseases. Reproductive problems in men and women include infertility, sexual dysfunction, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and overall health challenges in all decades of life. Major hurdles in this field include a limited understanding of mechanisms underlying reproductive processes, and few scientific meetings focused on reproduction. As the title of the meeting indicates, this SGP meeting will integrate various aspects of reproductive research, from molecules to medicine, bringing together experts in membrane proteins involved in ion transport, their structure and biophysics,…

The meeting will include scientific talks, poster sessions, and social and networking events. Presentations at MPM feature research about a wide range of parasites. The majority of research focuses on understanding molecular mechanisms of parasite biology and control and spans a wide range of topics and approaches, including biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, host-parasite interactions, vector-parasite interactions, population biology, ‘omics analyses, and development of drugs, vaccines, and other new tools.
