Phase separation and spatial organization of chromatin

Chromatin organization and function in the nucleus are complex and dynamic processes, which are tightly regulated by a variety of factors, including DNA sequence, epigenetic modifications and protein-protein interactions. Recent studies have shown that the separation phase may play an essential role in the formation of membrane-free organelles in the nucleus.

During the workshop, we will explore the current state of research on chromatin organization at different scales, and discuss the molecular mechanisms underlying the chromatin separation phase, as well as the physical factors that regulate this process. We will also examine the functional consequences of the chromatin segregation phase, including its impact on gene expression, DNA repair and genome stability.

This event will provide a forum for researchers from various fields to share their latest findings.
During the workshop, there will be an opportunity for participants to present their research in the form of :

• Posters + mini-talks (2-3 min to quickly present their work before the poster session)
• Short presentations for young researchers (15 min presentation + 5 min questions)

If you would like to present a poster or short talk, please indicate your interest during the registration process by filling in the appropriate section.
