4th Epigenetics Conference
10 Oct 2024 - 13 Oct 2024 • St. Julians, Malta
Organizer:
Fusion Conferences
Abstract:
Chromatin is the template of life, the carrier of genetic information and the core regulator of fundamental processes such as gene expression and stem cell fate determination. Chromatin dysfunction on the other hand can trigger various diseases, including cancer. Although chromatin structure and function and the mechanisms of disease and their diagnostic and therapeutic approaches are the subject of many meetings, conferences bringing them together are less frequent. The boundaries among these various disciplines are disappearing and meeting on "Epigenetics: from mechanisms to disease" will focus on the discussion of the role of chromatin architecture, epigenetics, stem and single cell biology in cancer and other diseases. The talks will cover a broad range of topics, including chromosome organisation, long-range interactions, chromatin assembly, stem cell regulation/differentiation, RNA-based mechanisms, transcription regulation, DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation, exploiting the power of genome engineering technologies, single-cell approaches, cutting edge epigenomics and imaging approaches and novel cell systems such as organoids. Speakers have been selected to broadly reflect lessons learned from a variety of model organisms and experimental approaches.

EES24-11 — EMBO | EMBL Symposium The complex life of RNA
15 Oct 2024 - 18 Oct 2024 • Heidelberg, Germany
Organizer:
EMBL Heidelberg
Abstract:
Before the genetic information stored in DNA can be used to direct cell growth and metabolism, it has to be transferred into RNA. Messenger RNAs (mRNAs) that code for proteins and noncoding RNAs are key components in the transmission of genetic information in all life forms – from viruses to complex mammalian organisms. Following the great success of the 2022 edition of this long-standing symposium, we are looking forward to returning in 2024, bringing together leaders in the RNA field, post-docs and students, with the aim of disseminating and discussing the most recent results. The programme will include topics on transcription, RNA processing and modification, mRNA export and localisation, mRNA surveillance and decay, translation, the activity of non-coding RNAs, the control of mRNA expression, and coupling among these processes.

4th Annual Genotoxic Impurities Summit: Nitrosamines & Beyond 2024
04 Dec 2024 - 05 Dec 2024 • Prague, Czech Republic
Organizer:
Uventia Global
Abstract:
Impurities may have a negative effect on the efficacy, safety, and quality of pharmaceutical components and products. The successful development and manufacturing of novel medications now depend heavily on the assessment of the impurity profiles as well as the management and monitoring of those. The diligent identification of nitrosamines and other genotoxic contaminants should be established at every step of drug development in order to comply with growing regulatory requirements and prevent costly recalls. Our online meeting, which we organized in collaboration with industry professionals, aimed to showcase and discuss different perspectives on addressing the challenges caused by mutagenic impurities. We will go over drug impurity profiling techniques that follow regulatory guidelines, as well as useful tips for adhering to recent updates to ICH M7 and Q3D, new nitrosamine regulations, nitrosamine impurities determination and calculation, risk assessment for genotoxic impurities, analytical challenges, development of acceptance criteria and most recent developments in elemental impurity assessment.

Dagstuhl-Seminar — Coding Theory and Algorithms for Emerging Technologies in Synthetic Biology
15 Dec 2024 - 20 Dec 2024 • Schloss Dagstuhl, Wadern, Germany
Organizer:
Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik
Abstract:
The progress in understanding genes and genomes has given a boost to the use of synthetic DNA for biological and technological applications. Synthetic nucleic acids play a central role in synthetic biology and in emerging therapeutic paradigms, e.g., genome editing and nucleic acid vaccines. DNA-based data storage is making significant progress, and thanks to its extreme data-density, its high durability and its timelessness, it is promising to be the next standard for data archival systems. Synthetic biology and the use of synthetic DNA for information storage applications bring important algorithmic and data analysis challenges. In synthetic biology, reagent and assay design are often driven by algorithmic approaches. Novel synthesis technologies offer cost-reduction by several orders of magnitude at the cost of increased error-rate, raising new coding-theoretic questions. This Dagstuhl Seminar aims to bring together leading biologists, chemists, engineers, computer/data scientists, and theoreticians working on synthetic biology and on DNA-based data storage, to enable joint work in small groups leading to discussing and exploring recent advancements and current challenges.

DTC25-01 — EMBL Course Computing skills for reproducible research: software carpentry
27 Jan 2025 - 31 Jan 2025 • Heidelberg, Germany
Organizer:
EMBL Heidelberg
Abstract:
Computation is an integral part of today’s research as data has grown too large or too complex to be analysed by hand. An ever-growing fraction of science is performed computationally and many wet-lab biologists spend part of their time on the computer. Many scientists struggle with this aspect of research as they have not been properly trained in the necessary set of skills. The result is that too much time is spent using inefficient tools when progress could be faster. This course provides training in several key tools, with a focus on good development practices that encourage efficient and reproducible research computing.

DAT25-01 — EMBL Course Whole transcriptome data analysis
01 Jun 2025 - 06 Jun 2025 • Heidelberg, Germany
Organizer:
EMBL Heidelberg
Abstract:
This course will teach the biological researchers how to analyse biological data sets using open-source software. Most of the analysis will be performed with docker4seq and rCASC packages, which was developed to facilitate the use of computing demanding applications in the field of NGS data analysis. Docker4seq and rCASC packages use docker containers that embed demanding computing tasks (e.g. short reads mapping) into isolated containers. This approach provides multiple advantages: the user does not need to install all the software on its local server, the results generated by different containers can be organised in pipelines and reproducible research is guarantee by the possibility of sharing the docker images used for the analysis. Computers for hands-on exercises will be provided along with demo data sets.
