Stay Up To Date - Attend An Epigenetics Conference

Epigenetic factors affect the incidence of many diseases, including cancer and

neurodegenerative conditions, and have an increasing influence on the field of biomedical

research. Thus, there is a great deal of importance involved in staying informed on current

research. Attending an Epigenetics Conference can be one of the best ways to make sure that

you stay up to date on new information, research and protocols. However, selecting the right

conference can be challenging, as there are countless epigenetics meetings each month. Here

are a few noteworthy conferences in 2020 that you should add to your calendar.

From January 2630, Keystone Symposia is hosting an epigenetics conference focused on cancer

epigenetics and gene regulation, entitled Cancer Epigenetics: New Mechanisms and Therapeutic

Opportunities. This meeting will be held jointly with Gene Regulation: From Mechanisms to Disease. The

keynote speakers are all renowned experts in the field and include Karen Adelman, Ph.D. and Shelley L.

Berger, Ph.D. and. The Cancer Epigenetics conference aims to explore advances in methods,

mechanistic insights and drug discovery efforts. Key areas to be explored in the Gene Regulation

meeting include the effects of precise control of gene expression and its effects on organismal

development, homeostasis, and aging.

Another exciting conference to look forward to in 2020 is the Gordon Research Chromatin

Structure and Function Conference held on May 31- June 5 in Castelldefels, ES.on. This meeting

will cover epigenetics fundamentals, but will also offer a look at chromatin organization and its

effects on physiology and disease. Specifically, it will explore new methodologies that enable

chromatin mapping and visualization at the single-cell level. Seats are filled on a rolling basis,

so be sure to apply early.

The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) is hosting a Science Research

Conference on June 21-26 in Sicily, Italy. The conference is dedicated to DNA, RNA and protein methylation

and the role that post-translational methylation has on the development of human disease. Biologists and

chemists from many backgrounds and disciplines will come together to explore the effects of protein and

nucleic acid methylation on diseases.

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory is hosting a conference on September 14t-18, 2020 featuring

Shelley L. Berger, Ph.D. and Richard Young, Ph.D., as keynote speakers. This conference will

explore topics regarding nuclear architecture, chromatin structure, epigenetic memory,

protein and DNA modification and much more.

Additionally, EpiCypher’s scientific founders are organizing a 2020 epigenetics conference that will be

held from November 8-13 in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. Featuring renowned keynote speakers Kristian

Helin, Ph.D. and Steven Henikoff, Ph.D., this conference will explore the latest findings and technological

advances in epigenetics research. To learn more about this epigenetics conference, visit EpiCypher.com.

These are only a few of the epigenetics conferences scheduled for 2020. Take a look here at

EpiCypher’s website to see a complete list of upcoming conferences as well as more

information on speakers and topics addressed. Be sure to sign up in advance as space is

limited in many cases and will fill quickly.
