DATE: 09 – 11 October 2025

Location: Landhotel Am Rothenberg, Volpriehausen

This meeting follows the tradition of the Channelrhodopsin, SPP1926 Optogenetics and Optogenetics 2023 meetings and strives to gather the optogenetics community and facilitate collaborations. It has been made possible by funding contributed by Else Kröner Fresenius Center for Optogenetic Therapies, FOR 5807, Göttingen CRCs, RTGs and MBExC. We are very excited about the list of already confirmed speakers (see below) and will cover the whole spectrum of tool development to control and image cellular behaviour and their applications in bacteria, eukaryotic cells, organs like the heart and brain to the translation of optogenetic approaches into clinics.

Please send your abstracts (max. 3000 signs/words) to this address: ed.negnitteog-inu.dem@zfke until 15th August 2025 if you would like to be selected for a talk in one of the sessions. For poster presentations only titles are sufficient and a short selection of suitable topics.

Confirmed speakers: Oliver Ernst, Timm Fehrentz, Thomas Frank, Christiane Grimm, Keiichi Inoue, Olivia Masseck, Andreas Möglich, Vlachesiav Nikolaev, Crystal M. Ripplinger, Eva Rog-Zielinska, Leonardo Sacconi, Philipp Sasse, Ali Shaib, Nadja A. Simeth-Crespi, Peter Soba, Philipp Tovote, Simon Wiegert, Jonas Wietek, Tania Zaglia
