Chromatin structure, regulation and plasticity dictate many of the nuclear processes, e.g. replication, transcription, cell cycle, protein dynamics, chromatin modifications, and more - all of which ultimately facilitate or repress changes in transcription, either locally or globally. Chromatin is the basic regulatory unit of life and the main scaffold for epigenetic regulation. As such, it controls developmental and functional states of all cells, including pluripotency and pluripotent stem cells. Differentiation of embryonic stem cells into specialized cells involves dramatic changes in gene expression patterns, tightly correlated with alterations in DNA and histone modification states and subsequent global changes in chromatin plasticity. In recent years, methods to study chromatin have dramatically improved and expanded to both single cells and genome-wide global approaches, allowing a systems-level understanding of epigenetic regulation. Here we bring together leading researchers to discuss recent topics on chromatin and epigenetic regulation in the context of stem cells and pluripotency, lineage choice, and more.

EMBO Workshop on Genome Dynamics in Neurosceince and Aging Sunday, April 7, 2019 - 18:00 to Thursday, April 11, 2019 - 15:00

Herzliya

Genome stability, which is essential for cellular homeostasis, relies primarily on the DNA damage response network. Genome stability is also essential to the proper functioning of the nervous system, evidenced by the prominence of neurodegeneration in many genome instability syndromes. Recent evidence suggests a broader role of genome stability in human health, one that affects aging and common chronic morbidities. Genome Dynamics in Neuroscience and Aging (GDNA) is an interdisciplinary EMBO workshop bringing together researchers of the DNA damage response, neuroscience, aging, cell senescence, mitochondrial function, and metabolism to discuss the links between genome stability and these aspects of human physiology, and the impact of genome instability on them and on longevity.

The coming ICPMB conference aims to bring together researchers who study mitochondrial genomics, genetics and biochemistry, with a focus on plants.
The topics to be covered during the meeting include (but will not be restricted to) ‘mitochondria and the beginning of life’, ‘mitochondrial inheritance’, ‘mitochondria genome structures’, ‘respiratory-mediated functions’, ‘respiration and fitness’, ‘regulatory coordination between the mitochondrion and the nucleus (or plastids)’, ‘regulation of organellar gene expression’, mitochondrial ‘ROS’ and ‘mitophagy’.
