Welcome! The European Peptide Society is a non-profit association established for the public benefit to promote in Europe and in neighbouring countries the advancement of education and scientific study of the chemistry, biochemistry, biology and pharmacology of peptides.
The EPS publishes, in co-operation with John Wiley & Sons, the Journal of Peptide Science and the EPS Newsletter. The EPS also organizes the bi-annual European Peptide Symposium, sponsors local and specialised meetings and workshops, and supports and promotes young scientists with travel grants and dedicated seminars.

Free Webinar: Challenges and Solutions for In-Depth Coverage and Quantitation of the Immunopeptidome
Apr 14, 2011
The cellular immune response depends upon T cell recognition of peptides presented on the surface of cells. Tens to hundreds of thousand different MHC-bound surface peptides (the immunopeptidome) are simultaneously displayed for scrutiny by T cells. Although mass spectrometry offers a powerful approach for measurement of antigen, the informatics required for MHC peptides is one of the most extreme challenges faced in any area of study in proteomics...
