Conversations: A Guide to Packing Your DNA
Genetic material is not randomly organized within the nucleus of a cell. How this organization occurs and why it matters are questions that Cell editor Marta Koch posed to Mitchell Guttman, Job Dekker, and Stavros Lomvardas. The 4D Nucleome grantees Drs. Job Dekker, Mitchell Guttman, and Stavros Lomvardas discuss the organization of genetic material in the nucleus, how it occurs, and why it matters.

Past Workshops & Conferences

Keystone Symposia: Higher-Order Chromatin Architecture in Time and Space

When: November 15-17, 2021. 10AM EST.
Where: Virtual Meeting
Scientific Organizers: Jennifer E. Phillips-Cremins, Job Dekker and Stavros Lomvardas

Higher-Order Chromatin Architecture in Time and Space

The 2020 Keystone meeting is meant to highlight new frontiers across disciplines in tackling the dynamics and functional roles of the 3D genome in cellular functions across time and space in development and disease. The conference program will also include workshops on: (1) Leading computational methods to identify biologically relevant patterns in Hi-C data, (2) New genome mapping and imaging technologies, and (3) New data resources available through the 4D Nucleome consortium. Finally, it will conclude with a session devoted to novel tools for imaging and engineering the 3D genome.
