Fabrizio Chiti (Department of Biomedical, Experimental and Clinical Sciences, University of Florence, Italy) will talk about the conversion of soluble proteins into highly structured fibrils. He and his team found two solution conditions to convert a sample protein, namely HypFHN, from its denatured state to toxic and nontoxic protein oligomers.

The conference will be held on 12th September at 10.00 AM, at SISSA, Room 04 (ground floor).
