Munich Chromatin 2021 - 952x200

Chromatin and Epigenetics: From Mechanisms to Execution

Join us on April 14 & 15 for live talks and discussions on the latest advances in the chromatin field.

​Event overview

This exciting two-day digital conference will build a bridge between chromatin mechanisms and the epigenetic phenomena - two key pillars of modern biology.

Join us in April for two interactive digital sessions where the latest advances in the chromatin field will be discussed, covering basic molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation to complex epigenetic pathways in the development and reprogramming of stem cells and organoids. Gain insights into approaches impacting the field with talks from thought leaders and opportunities to discuss key topics in live Q&A sessions.

​​Live sessions:

Session 1: How it works and how it looks

April 14, 2021
​4pm-6pm CET | 3pm-5pm GMT | 10am-12pm EST | 7am-9am PST

​​Basic chromatin mechanisms underlie the function of all DNA-related processes. The key to our genome, those mechanisms are increasingly complex. This session will review novel developments on chromatin and RNA function mechanisms, from biochemistry to imaging with the highest resolution.

​​Session 2: Single cells and their fates

April 15, 2021
​4pm-6.15pm CET | 3pm-5.15pm GMT | 10am-12.15pm EST | 7am-9.15am PST

​​Cell identity relies on our genome's intricate interpretation through chromatin and epigenetic mechanisms, which are specially remodeled during development and reprogramming. New models to study cell fate, such as organoids, show increasingly exciting potential to understand how chromatin regulates cell fate and function through the action of genomic elements such as enhancers.​

Confirmed speakers:

  • Rudolf Jaenisch, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA 
  • Prisca Liberali, Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research, Switzerland​
  • Alexander Stark, Research Institute of Molecular Pathology (IMP), Austria​​
