EMBL Conference

Gene regulation: one molecule at a time

Overview

This conference will take place at EMBL Heidelberg, with the option to attend virtually.

Registration is not yet open for this event. If you are interested in receiving more information please register your interest.

Conference overview

In the last 20 years, genomics has revolutionised our understanding of genome organisation and its regulation. It led to near complete annotation of the genome and the factors regulating expression of our genes. Yet, almost all of this knowledge arises from experiments that sample millions of regulatory events to create an average static picture that fails to capture the mechanistic steps and the dynamics that underlie these complex processes.

The last decade has seen the independent emergence in the field of microscopy and genomics of technologies able to study gene regulatory processes at the resolution of individual DNA molecules. Joining the power of these orthogonal approaches promise to bring us towards a molecular understanding of gene regulation mechanisms in vivo.

The goal of this meeting is to organise a common venue for researchers that use orthogonal assays to study the various steps regulating gene expression, at molecular resolution. The conference is designed as a forum for researchers using microscopy, genomics and theoretical approaches to collectively build joint strategies that will shape the future of the field.

Warning

EMBL wishes to warn sponsors of EMBL conferences and courses of fraudulent schemes purporting to offer sponsorship opportunities on behalf of EMBL or affiliated with EMBL officials. One current scam campaign of which we are aware is conducted using the name ‘Judy Eastman’ (judy@gopcontact.a2hosted.com) and entails approaches to sponsors offering sponsorship opportunities on EMBL’s behalf. Please be kindly advised that all relevant communication regarding sponsorship of EMBL conferences, symposia and courses is handled by EMBL directly and is sent from an official EMBL account. EMBL does not work with any external providers on sponsorship acquisition.

Please also note that:

  • EMBL never provides attendee lists for purchase. Any offers of such are fraudulent.
  • EMBL will never call or email you to ask for your credit card details or to request a payment.
  • All payments are on invoice.

Suspicious communications purportedly from, for or on behalf of EMBL should be reported to EMBL at the following email address sponsorship@embl.de.
