The PDID symposium is finally back in 2026!Following a successful first edition that notably brought together leading figures known for discovering and conceptualizing intrinsically disordered proteins—Drs. Vladimir N. Uversky, Peter Tompa, and Sonia Longhi—we are pleased to announce that the second edition of the One-Day Symposium on Protein Disorder, Interactions, and Dynamics (PDID 2026) will be held on Friday, December 18, 2026, at the University of Namur (UNamur) in Namur, Belgium.Organized every two years by the Belgian Biophysical Society (BBS) and the Laboratoire de Chimie Physique des Biomolécules (CPB), the PDID symposium is an intimate and welcoming event for exchanging new ideas and meeting leading experts in the field in the quintessentially Belgian city of Namur, the capital of Wallonia, located at the confluence of the Meuse and Sambre rivers.We welcome participants from any scientific background who are particularly interested in delving into the world of biomolecular dynamics and exploring their unique behaviors, including structural transitions, interaction networks, protein-ligand interactions, self-assembly, amyloid fibrillation, condensation, phase separation, and phase transitions. Through the lens of biophysics, biochemistry, bioinformatics, and molecular biology, the program aims to cover both experimental and computational approaches for characterizing such intricate and elusive systems in health-related, biotechnological, and biomaterial contexts.
