Objective
Steroid research investigates the biosynthesis, catabolism, biological activity and physiological effects of steroid hormones, encompassed in the study of endocrinology. During the Swiss Steroid Symposium 2025, Swiss researchers will present and discuss their latest steroid research findings, kick-starting Swiss-orientated collaborations for future investigations.
Significance
Bringing highly trained Swiss specialist in the field of steroid hormones together will provide a view into the state and position of steroid research in Switzerland and will spark conversations on new research avenues, future collaborative grant applications and updates concerning current running projects ―with the end goal of promoting steroid research in Switzerland.
