"The Leuven Protein Aggregation Meeting united a world leading researchers in the fields of protein self-assembly, misfolding protein, amyloid formation and structural biology. A wide range of topics was presented: structure and function of amyloidogenic proteins, the mechanism of the formation of amyloid structures, the molecular basis of toxicity of amyloids, anti-amyloid compounds as antimicrobial agents and biophysical methods to investigate amyloid. Particularly interesting topics are an interplay between phase separation and amyloid aggregation and new biophysical approaches to study phase separation (AFM-IR and FIDAbio). It was a great opportunity to established connect with a vibrant community of researchers working in the protein aggregation field and presented and discussed my results. Thank you for funding my travel and participation in this outstanding event!"
