8th Meeting of the Asian Forum

for Chromosome & Chromatin Biology

AMRL Hall
Jawaharlal Nehru centre for Advanced Scientific Research, Bangalore

4th – 6th November, 2023

About

Research on Chromosome-Chromatin biology has gained tremendous impetus in recent years. Discovery of different chromatin modifying enzymes, remodeling machineries and high-resolution nucleosome structure have enabled the unravelling of mechanisms underlying epigenetic phenomena in disease and development. In India, several researchers are now working in these frontier areas of research,

For more than a decade, this forum has been instrumental in developing excellent collaborative research activities across the continents. Following on from the success of the past seven meetings, we are organizing the meeting this year emphasizing on the following research areas:
i) Epigenetic basis of modulation of transcription and chromatin organization,
ii) implication of chromatin biology in differentiation and disease.
Apart from several active scientists from India, eminent international scientists also participate in this meeting. It provides an apt platform to the research scholars and budding scientists to present their work, get the appropriate feedback and network with researchers and experts. A successful completion of this conference would definitely help to create a better scientific environment for chromosome-chromatin and related areas in this part of the globe.
The major focus of this conference is to have an up to date for the cutting edge and latest developments in the field of chromosome and chromatin biology.
