Since the decoding of the human genome, it has been clear how decisively proteins influence all bodily functions. The interdisciplinary field of proteomics is a young and exciting area of research that is revealing the molecular causes of more and more diseases in the dynamic system of proteins. Research into molecular causes is the basis for new therapeutic approaches and active substances, including against cancer and infectious diseases. The diverse scientific program at the HUPO World Congress ranges from the application of new technologies to the promotion of biological knowledge and global health.
