The Biophysical Society's Subgroups hold symposia that allow attendees to meet and interact within focused areas. The Saturday Subgroup programs are heavily attended and include exciting scientific symposia, awards presentations, student and postdoc talks, and business meetings, which are open to members of each Subgroup. Subgroup symposia will be held on the first day of the Annual Meeting, Saturday, February 15, 2025, at the Los Angeles Convention Center in Los Angeles, California.

Saturday Subgroup Symposium programs will be available for viewing in October.

In 2025, the Subgroup symposia will be divided into the following sessions:

Morning Sessions (8:30 AM - 12:30 PM) Afternoon Sessions (1:30 PM - 5:30 PM)
Bioenergetics, Mitochondria & Metabolism Bioengineering
Biological Fluorescence Intrinsically Disordered Proteins
Biopolymers in Vivo Macromolecular Machines and Assemblies
Channels, Receptors & Transporters Mechanobiology
Cryo-EM Membrane Structure and Function
Membrane Fusion, Fission & Traffic Membrane Transport
Nanoscale Approaches Motility and Cytoskeleton
Physical Cell Biology Multiscale Genome Organization
Theory & Computation Single-Molecule Forces, Manipulation and
