Welcome from
the chairs

Welcome to the 1st International Electronic Conference on Molecular Sciences (ECMS): Cell Signaling, Survival and Growth. This conference will bring together scientists from a range of research disciplines to highlight their research in the following five main themes:

Passing on the Message via Intracellular Signaling Pathways
Importance of Cell Death Pathways in Biology
Stem Cells and Their Research Potential
Effect of Radiation on Cell Function
Enhancing the Ability of Nerve Cells to Recover From Injury
Posters: In this section, posters can be presented without an accompanying proceedings paper. Posters will be available online on this website during and after the e-conference. However, will not be added to the proceedings of the conference.

This online conference will allow you to participate without having to leave home saving you time and money while at the same time gaining new information on current research in cell biology.

Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of the conference, and selected papers will be considered for publication in IJMS, which is an open access journal publication of MDPI in the field of molecular sciences (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/ijms).

We look forward to your participation in this exciting new concept of an online conference which will run from 15–22 October 2015 and can be found at https://www.sciforum.net/conference/ecms-1 .

Best regards,
