The Calreticulin Workshop, initiated in 1994 by Marek Michalak in Banff (Alberta, Canada), was first organized to be an informal scientific meeting attended by researchers working on diverse biological questions related to functions associated with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)‐resident lectin‐like chaperone and applied to a wide range of biological systems and models. Since then, this workshop has broadened the range of topics to cover all ER‐related functions, has become international and has been held in Canada, Chile, Denmark, Italy, Switzerland, UK, USA, Greece and this year in France. Each conference, which is organized every other year (pending world‐wide pandemic), generally attracts between 50 and 100 participants, including both early career researchers and international scientific leaders to favour discussions and exchanges. Over the years, the International Calreticulin Workshop has become an important gathering of the calreticulin and ER communities as a whole. The 14th International Calreticulin Workshop occurred from May 9–12 in St‐Malo, Brittany, France, and has been highlighted by its rich scientific content and open‐minded discussions held in a benevolent atmosphere. The 15th International Calreticulin Workshop will be organized in 2025 in Brussels, Belgium. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
