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 cancerepigenetics and gene regulation, entitled Cancer Epigenetics: New Mechanisms and TherapeuticOpportunities. This meeting will be held jointly with Gene Regulation: From Mechanisms to Disease. Thekeynote 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 Regulationmeeting include the effects of precise control of gene expression and its effects on organismaldevelopment, 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 ResearchConference on June 21-26 in Sicily, Italy. The conference is dedicated to DNA, RNA and protein methylationand the role that post-translational methylation has on the development of human disease. Biologists andchemists from many backgrounds and disciplines will come together to explore the effects of protein andnucleic 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 beheld from November 8-13 in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. Featuring renowned keynote speakers KristianHelin, Ph.D. and Steven Henikoff, Ph.D., this conference will explore the latest findings and technologicaladvances in epigenetics research.
