1. Relevance of the research to the workshop remit (i.e., protein targeting and translocation);
2. Career stage, with priority given to early-career group leaders, postdoctoral researchers, and advanced graduate students;
3. Gender and geographical location, to achieve a diverse and representative distribution of participants;
4. Subject area, with priority given to participants who will cover topics that are not dealt with by the invited speakers;
5. Laboratory affiliation, to ensure a minimal number of representatives from the same research group.
All selected participants will be requested to present a poster. In addition, a number of abstracts will be selected for either short talk or flash talk presentations.
