ICMB2026 (The International Conference on Molecular Biology 2026) is the third edition of a cross-disciplinary meeting bringing together leading and emerging scientists to discuss fundamental and translational advances in molecular and cellular regulation.

Applications for this University of Copenhagen PhD course are due 24 August 2026.

This workshop will explore how variation in cell states, lineage architecture, and cellular dynamics contributes to evolutionary innovation. We will examine how alterations in lineage topology, timing, and spatial deployment can reshape organismal form, color, and function, and how regulatory changes become incorporated into existing gene regulatory networks to diversify or create new cell types.
