Tracing the Path of Chloride:
From Ion Channels and Transporters to Physiology and Therapeutics

The 2025 SGP Annual Meeting will bring together scientists from different fields to explore the latest discoveries on the ion channels and transporters that move chloride, an essential but often overlooked player in human health. The meeting will help drive new ideas and innovations by fostering collaborations across disciplines. It will also emphasize supporting early-career scientists and promoting diversity in the field through networking, mentorship, and career development opportunities.
