Chromatin: From Nucleosomes to Chromosomes

Conference - Cambridge, United Kingdom

This 3-day meeting continues the Wellcome Trust conference series focused on fundamental aspects of chromatin biology. The 2014 conference will focus on the latest developments in understanding chromatin structure and function, particularly gene expression and genome integrity. This meeting will bring together the leading researchers in chromatin and chromosome structure, epigenetic gene regulation and chromosome fibre interactions to explore outstanding questions in the field and enable participants to identify new research opportunities and collaborations.

Sessions will include:

Nucleosome positioning and remodelling

Histone variants and chaperones

Gene regulation by distal regulatory elements

Histone modifications

Heterochromatin and transcriptional silencing

Polycomb-mediated regulation

Chromatin fibres and nuclear dynamics

Chromosome integrity

Organization: Wellcome Trust
