Abstract

The first Autumn School on Proteostasis was held at the Mediterranean Institute for Life Sciences (MedILS) in Split, Croatia, from November 12th–16th, 2018, bringing together 44 graduate students and postdoctoral fellows and 22 principal investigators from around the world. This meeting was geared towards providing students with an in-depth understanding of the field of proteostasis, with the aim of broadening their perspectives of the field. Session topics covered multiple aspects of cellular and organismal proteostasis, including fundamental principles, responses to heat shock, aging and disease, and protein folding, misfolding, and degradation. The structure of the meeting and the restricted number of participants afforded the students and postdocs the opportunity to interact with principal investigators to discuss not only their latest research, but also their career prospects and progression in a close, supportive environment.
