- Biochemistry and climate change
- BMB education and training
- Cancer biology and metabolism
- CRISPR based gene editing
- Gene regulation
- Immunology
- Mass spectrometry-based -omics and disease
- Metabolism and metabolic disease
- Protein structure, synthesis and folding
- Signal transduction
- Vaccine development and delivery systems
Interest group sessions are two-hour minisymposia held on the first day of the meeting, March 23.

Decisions will be sent by Oct. 26, at which time a final speaker list will be required.
