Welcome to the MBP International Scientific Network
The Metal-Binding Peptide Scientific Network (MBP Network) is an emerging global community dedicated to advancing research and education in metal-binding peptide science. Born from successful international conferences in Nancy (2022) and Toulouse (2024), our network connects researchers across chemistry, biology, materials science and nanotechnology.
We provide a collaborative platform to:
Share cutting-edge research on peptide-metal interactions
Develop innovative characterization methods and synthetic strategies
Bridge fundamental science with applications in health, environment and technology
Foster interdisciplinary partnerships through conferences and workshops
Our growing community promotes:
✓ Scientific exchange through researcher mobility programs
✓ Joint projects and co-publications
✓ Training opportunities for early-career scientists
✓ Strategic funding collaborations
