The EMBO Workshop Astrocytes: From Molecules to Systems is the first international meeting dedicated to astrocytes. The diverse molecular and biochemical profiles and functions of astrocytes pose unprecedented technological and conceptual challenges in both fundamental and translational neurosciences. Addressing astrocyte pathophysiology requires a multidisciplinary approach, fostering collaboration across fundamental, translational, and computational neuroscience. In this context, a comprehensive panel of speakers will offer complementary perspectives on astrocyte research. The workshop will provide a 360-degree view of the current state of astrocyte science and aims to strengthen the research community by facilitating discussions on a roadmap for the next decade. This EMBO Workshop on Astrocytes will take place in April 2025 in Venice, Italy, at the exclusive venue of Venice International University on San Servolo Island.
