More importantly, completely new classes of proteins (including enzymes, signaling molecules, transporters and channels etc.) were recognized as RBPs, posing questions regarding the biological functions of RNA binding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This meeting will bring together leaders in the field of RBPs \u2013 classical and newly discovered \u2013 and discuss exciting progress on all fronts, from posttranscriptional regulation of RNA expression to the riboregulation of protein functions, facilitated by rapidly emerging experimental technologies and data analysis tools. Discussion topics will range from structural work over cell biology, including RBP-containing \u2018membraneless organelles\u2019, metabolism and progress regarding human diseases. The methodological spectrum will be equally wide, and also include data analysis and AI\/modeling approaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since this will be the first time that such a conference is organized, community building or community extension, from the established field of classical RBPs in posttranscriptional control to the emerging perspectives, is also a major objective of the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Systems biology of RBPs (experimental multi-omics and data

information<\/h2>\n<p>A nationwide strike by the trade union Ver.di on <strong>Monday, 10 March 2025<\/strong> has brought air travel to a near standstill at 13 German airports, including the Frankfurt hub. Further details can be found here on the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.frankfurt-airport.com\/en.html\">website<\/a> of Frankfurt Airport. Currently all air travel in and to Germany is affected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We realise this could impact your journey to the&nbsp;<strong>EMBL Conference: The expanding world of RBPs: from posttranscriptional control to riboregulation.&nbsp;<\/strong>The following information is to assist you in checking and adjusting travel plans to reach Heidelberg:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Please make sure to check with your airline and keep an eye on potential updates<\/strong>!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Arriving to Heidelberg \u2013 Monday, 10 March and Tuesday, 11 March 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>By bus or train<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>All flights inbound to German airports will be severely disrupted on Monday and possibly Tuesday due to backlog. Only very few services will run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are able to rebook your flight to a neighboring European country, you could look into taking the <a href=\"https:\/\/int.bahn.de\/en\">train<\/a> or<a href=\"https:\/\/global.flixbus.com\/\">&nbsp;bus<\/a>. The strike affects only travel before and on the first day of the four-day conference. You will still be able to join if you arrive after the official registration session on day 1, as a last resort.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>By car \/ car sharing<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Car parking is available at EMBL Heidelberg.

I cannot travel to EMBL Heidelberg to attend the conference onsite, due to the strike and none of the above options work for me.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All is not lost, as a second best, you can attend the conference as a virtual participant using the details previously sent. The strike only affects travel before and on the first day of the four day conference.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Can I get a refund if I cannot attend the conference?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately not. However, you can still enjoy the conference as a virtual participant using the details previously sent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Does the strike affect local buses and trains?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No. Public buses and trains will continue to operate as planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Will the conference shuttle buses from Heidelberg hotels to EMBL&nbsp;still run?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, we are providing transport service as usual at specific times.

We will keep participants updated if this changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>7. Where can I connect with other participants to discuss transport arrangements?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An option for connecting with other participants in advance is the virtual platform for the conference (under discussion menu). Joining instructions for the virtual conference platform have been sent to you separately.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>8. If arriving directly to EMBL, can I bring my luggage?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, there are lockers available on-site to store your luggage.
