The mobile genome: genetic and physiological impacts of transposable elements
Deborah Bourc'his, Josefa Gonzalez Perez, Joseph Peters, Julius Brennecke
Description OverviewSpeakersProgrammePractical InformationSponsorsMedia kit Overview This conference will take place at EMBL Heidelberg with the option to attend virtually Conference overview Disparaged as selfish DNA for decades it s now clear that transposable elements TEs underlie the remarkably dynamic nature of bacterial plant and animal genomes This conference builds on the highly successful 2021 and 2023 Mobile Genome EMBO workshops and has emerged as the major European venue in this ever growing cross disciplinary research field The 2025 Mobile Genome conference will assemble recognized experts from diverse disciplines e g genomics epigenetics structural biology evolutionary biology and developmental biology as well as the next generation of scientists who will become leaders in the field to discuss the broad impact of TEs on organismal biology A dedicated discussion session focused on technological and conceptual advances will augment the program to provide a forum for cross disciplinary interaction among attendees with the goal of catalyzing collaborative opportunities to address new questions and challenges in TE research This event has been granted the following EMBO sustainability badge Grade 3 of 3 Speakers Keynote speakers Orsolya Barabas University of Geneva Switzerland Speakers Aude Bernheim Institut Pasteur France Emilie Brasset Institute of

Conference overview Disparaged as “selfish DNA” for decades, it’s now clear that transposable elements (TEs) underlie the remarkably dynamic nature of bacterial, plant, and animal genomes. This conference builds on the highly successful 2021 and 2023 Mobile Genome EMBO workshops and has emerged as the major European venue in this ever-growing cross-disciplinary research field. The 2025 Mobile Genome conference will assemble recognized experts from diverse disciplines (e.g., genomics, epigenetics, structural biology, evolutionary biology, and developmental biology), as well as the next generation of scientists who will become leaders in the field, to discuss the broad impact of TEs on organismal biology.
