Dynamics of Epigenetic Regulation: Mechanisms and Beyond

The Gordon Research Seminar on Epigenetics is a unique forum for graduate students, postdocs, and other junior scientists to present and exchange new data and cutting-edge ideas. The focus of this meeting is on recent advances in our understanding of the dynamic nature of epigenetic regulatory mechanisms across phyla. In particular, we will focus on how epigenetic alterations can influence phenotypic plasticity, development, reprogramming, and transgenerational inheritance. The GRS will include a keynote address by Dr. Bradley Cairns, as well as a career panel discussion with panelists from academic and non-academic fields.
