Upcoming
UPCOMING: Hidden Cell, Dark Genome 2025
This international conference is inspired by the combined aims of the Wellcome Discovery Research Platform for Hidden Cell Biology and MRC Human Genetics Unit at the University of Edinburgh in uncovering currently hidden areas of genetics, cellular and structural biology.
It will provide a forum to present cutting-edge researchand discuss how novel approaches and methodologies will make substantial breakthroughs in these critical areas of biology. Specifically, it will focus on the following challenge areas: regulatory functions of the dark genome, Uncharted proteins and RNA complexity, atomic structures at the cellular scale, and Cellular diversity.
Registration and abstract submission for short talks and poster presentations is open.
Organisers: Wendy Bickmore,Adele Marston, Shipra Bhatia, Owen Davies, Georg Kustatscher, Hannah Long
April 3-4th, 2025 – UK (Edinburgh, Scotland)
UPCOMING: Epigenetics-2025, from mechanisms to disease
This international conference will bring together leading experts to foster dynamic discussions on the latest breakthroughs in epigenetics. It will cover mechanisms of epigenetic regulation across various fields and explore how these mechanisms are deregulated in disease states. The Epigenetics-2025 conference will also provide a platform for early-career and senior scientists to collaborate, exchange ideas, and present their most recent scientific findings.
April 25th, 2025 – UK (Belfast, Northern Ireland)
