The 13th International Symposium of Aminoacyl-tRNA Synthetases (AARS2023)
AARS2023 is an international conference that brings together ~200 scientists from all over the world to advance the frontiers of research with respect to the essential functions of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (AARSs) in protein synthesis and translation fidelity and their relationship to disease caused by human pathogens or by genetic mutations in the human population. Our research community includes scientists, clinicians, and representatives from the pharmaceutical industry that will meet to reveal new knowledge regarding the origin of genetic coding, the structure and mechanism of the translational apparatus, the diverse roles of AARSs in protein synthesis, as well as non-translational functions and physiological regulation in human disease. The 13th AARS meeting will be held at The Oakwood resort in Grand Bend, Ontario, Canada from June 4th to June 9th, 2023.
