Conference: 2015 Gordon Research Seminar and Conference on Epigenetics, to be held August 1-7, 2015 at Bentley University, Waltham, MA

该项目支持2015年戈登表观遗传学研究研讨会和会议，该研讨会将于2015年8月1日至7日在马萨诸塞州沃尔瑟姆的本特利大学举行。讲座和海报会议的科学计划，加上会议的小规模，将鼓励非正式讨论和联网，并将催化刺激互动和分享表观遗传学领域最令人兴奋的研究。包括和扩大早期职业科学家参与的共同努力将使年轻研究人员的参与多样化，其中一些人将成为该领域的下一代领导者。在会议之前举行的表观遗传学戈登研究研讨会的标题是“有丝分裂和减数分裂表观遗传的机制”，由两名研究生组织。它将包括该领域一位领导者的主旨演讲，从摘要中挑选出来的演讲，以及以科学职业为中心的小组讨论。表观遗传学戈登研究会议的题目是“表观遗传学动态：在发展、遗传和对环境的反应中的作用”。该计划由该领域的两位领先研究人员共同组织，以演讲和海报会议为特色，讨论一系列主题，包括：表观遗传调控的RNA依赖模式、新的表观遗传现象、发育和剂量的表观遗传控制、基因组完整性的表观遗传控制、表观遗传学和核组织、表观遗传状态的动态和遗传，以及有针对性的表观遗传修饰。

This project supports the 2015 Gordon Research Seminar and Conference on Epigenetics, which will be held August 1-7, 2015 at Bentley University in Waltham, MA. The scientific program of talks and poster sessions, combined with the small size of the meeting, will encourage informal discussion and networking and will catalyze stimulating interactions and sharing of the most exciting research in the field of epigenetics. Concerted efforts to include and broaden participation by early-career scientists will diversify engagement by young researchers, some of whom will become the next generation of leaders in the field.The Epigenetics Gordon Research Seminar, which precedes the Conference, is entitled "Mechanisms of Mitotic and Meiotic Epigenetic Inheritance" and has been organized by two graduate students. It will feature a keynote address from a leader in the field, talks selected from the abstracts, and a panel discussion centered on careers in science. The Epigenetics Gordon Research Conference is entitled "Epigenetic Dynamics: Roles in Development, Inheritance and Responses to the Environment." Co-organized by two leading researchers in the field, the program features talks and poster sessions addressing a range of topics, including: RNA-dependent modes of epigenetic regulation, new epigenetic phenomena, epigenetic control of development and dosage, epigenetic control of genome integrity, epigenetics and nuclear organization, dynamics and inheritance of epigenetics states, and targeted epigenetic modifications.
