The SYMPOSIUM takes place from April 9-11, 2025  and is open for all interested students and scientists from the Paris and Munich communities and beyond. During the Symposium renowned speakers from the two communities present their latest insights into Epigenetics in sessions on chromatin environment, organization, remodelling and reprogramming. Short talks and poster presentations from early career (doctoral and postdoctoral) researchers will be selected from the submitted abstracts.

SYMPOSIUM programme

The WORKSHOP takes place on April 9 prior to the symposium, and is open for selected early stage doctoral and postdoctoral researchers new to the field of Epigenetics. The workshop focussed on the core concepts of cutting-edge Epigenetics research, taught by senior academic experts, as well as career orientation and communication skills, presented by alumna and professionals in the field. Workshop participants will have the opportunity to network and exchange, with discussions during the workshop, as well as with featured short talks and posters during the symposium.

WORKSHOP programme

WORKSHOP applicants should provide an abstract (approx. 400 words), short motivational letter, and a short CV.
Workshop applicants will automatically be considered registered for the symposium (regardless of whether they are selected for the workshop) – it is not necessary to register separately for the symposium!
