3rd Spatial Genome Organisation Conference

Memo

The conference will bring together scientists working to better understand nuclear and genome organisation in various organisms, tissues, and cell states.  Conference sessions will cover topics related to: ●    Nuclear and subnuclear structure and function ●    Hierarchies in nuclear organisation and chromosome topology in the context of gene expression ●    Hierarchies in nuclear organisation and chromosome topology in the context of DNA replication and repair ●    Crosstalk between transcription and repair ●    Technologies for the study of nuclear and genome structure and function ●    Nuclear bodies including the nucleolus, PML bodies, heterochromatin, Cajal bodies. ●    Biomolecular condensates and phase separation in the nucleus ●    Cohesin functions, topologically associated domains and transcription in genome control ●    DNA mobility and chromatin dynamics ●    Signalling cues, cellular states and genome organisation ●    Genome organisation in pluripotency, differentiation, and development ●    Nuclear and genome structures in health, cancer, aging, and age-related diseases ●    Chromatin loops and non-canonical nucleic acids structures in genome expression and stability ●    Spatial genome organisation: from the bench to the bedside Workshops will cover: Technical advances in the study of nuclear and genome organisation; The next frontiers in spatial genome organisation and its connection to health and disease; How to publish in the era of spatial genome organisation?
