A Scientific Section of HSBMB

Hellenic Matrix Biology

The Hellenic Matrix Biology Section (HMBS) promotes research and collaboration in the fields of extracellular matrix and connective tissue biology. Operating within HSBMB since 1997, it connects scientists from Greece and abroad to advance knowledge, innovation, and scientific networking.

Our Scope

HMBS supports research in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Medicine, Biotechnology, and Clinical Chemistry related to the extracellular matrix. It creates a dynamic environment for scientific communication, collaboration, and the development of conceptual research networks.

Research Focus

The Section promotes high-level research on the composition, structure, and function of extracellular matrix macromolecules. It encourages studies on their role in normal cellular processes and in the development of human diseases.

Global Partnerships

HMBS is an active member of Matrix Biology Europe (MBE) and the International Society for Matrix Biology (ISMB). Through conferences and advanced lecture courses, it fosters international cooperation and scientific excellence.
