Targeted protein degradation (TPD) stands as a revolutionary technology capable of selectively eliminating specific proteins of interest by leveraging natural cellular processes, including the ubiquitin-proteasome and lysosome pathways. TPD technology holds immense promise for the treatment of diverse diseases, ranging from cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, autoimmune disorders, inflammatory ailments, to viral and bacterial infections. Given its potential to overcome the challenges associated with traditional drug modalities like small molecules and biologics, TPD has garnered significant attention from academia, pharmaceutical industry, and investors world-wide.  

The theme of this symposium will be centered on development and application of TPD through chemical and biological innovations, serving not only as a research tool to interrogate and uncover new biology but also as a therapeutic modality to treat human diseases. Join us in lively discussion, networking opportunities with colleagues from diverse backgrounds worldwide, and to discover inspiring presentations and poster sessions at this exciting gathering in Shenzhen, China.
