Chromatin and Regulation of Gene Expression
Penn State’s 39th Summer Symposium (August 6-9, 2023)
Please join us for the 39th Summer Symposium, continuing a a strong tradition of bringing the chromatin and gene regulation community together and cultivating new ideas and collaborations. The 2023 symposium will be the eighth on the topic of chromatin since the beginning of this series in 1995. This meeting attracts several hundred participants from universities, public- and private-sector research organizations, and industry.
This year’s Symposium is interdisciplinary and will focus on the latest advances in the chromatin and gene regulation field. Major topics will include: structure and molecular mechanism of transcriptional regulation; biomolecular condensation; high order genome organization; gene regulatory networks in development and disease. This symposium will also highlight recent development in methods and technologies.
The Summer Symposium encourages attendance of undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows in addition to faculty. Registration is not restricted, and the inexpensive registration fees and accommodations allows for maximal participation by scientists in-training. In addition to a poster session, the 2023 symposium will feature approximately 24 short talks to be selected from submitted abstracts to allow junior faculty, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students the opportunity to present their work in highly visible settings.
