About the Event

The CME Symposium on Mechanisms of Cellular Evolution is being organized by the Biology Integration Institute for Mechanisms of Cellular Evolution at Arizona State University. The event is scheduled to take place from November 5-8, 2025, in Tempe, AZ. The symposium is the fourth in a series of annual events focused on the emerging interdisciplinary field of evolutionary cell biology (ECB). This field combines evolutionary biology and cell biology with other related disciplines, including biochemistry, biophysics, population genetics, molecular biology, and mathematics. The symposium aims to bring together leading researchers and experts from diverse fields to discuss current advances and future directions in ECB, and to provide opportunities for interdisciplinary discussions, knowledge sharing, and collaboration.
