GPCR Retreat 2014: a good view leads to many discoveries!

摘要

The GPCR gods smiled on us last year as the 15th Annual GPCR Retreat was held last October 2nd-4th in Bromont, Quebec. The fall colors were at their peak and the meeting attendees were also in fine form. The program was one of the best we have seen at any GPCR-related meeting in years and there was a great deal of excitement about new methodological approaches to understanding receptor biology, new concepts in GPCR signaling and a continued emphasis on translation of these discoveries. This year was also the first year we opened the meeting with a short course on biased agonism and how to measure and analyze it.
