What is
Chromdesign?

Training the next generation of chromatin researchers and science communicators

ChromDesign is an innovative and interdisciplinary network of 10 European academic and private institutions. Our aim is to characterise how 3D chromatin organisation affects gene regulation during cellular differentiation and in several human disorders.

Agenda

5th & 6th of October 2020

Happygene2sys (Epigene2sys) virtual meeting

Epigene2Sys is a CNRS GDRi coordinated by M-E Torres Padilla (Munich) and G. Almouzni (Paris) that aims to stimulate discoveries and discussions in epigenetics research and to encourage equal opportunity and career evolution of young researchers. The Happygene2sys meeting has been organized in an informal format to stimulate interesting conversations and to keep the excitement and momentum going following the successful Epigene2sys kickoff meeting in September 2019.

27th & 28th of October 2020

Researchers Night

Under the motto “Who is Who in European Science” several research centers in Barcelona (incl. Centre for Genomic Regulation - CRG , Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia – ICIQ , Institute of Marine Sciences - ICM-CSIC), UniversitatAutònoma de Barcelona – UAB and the Marie Curie Alumni Association (MCAA) invite to an entertaining and educating evening with the following activities with a main focus on H2020 Marie Skłodowska Curie Actions and their fellows.

22nd - 26th March 2021

ChromDesign training school and consortium meeting

ChromDesign virtual training school on quantitative microscopy organized by FMI and HMGU and Consortium Meeting with all ESRs and supervisors.
