EMBO | EMBL Symposium: Cell biology of the nucleus

November 18 to November 21

EMBL

EES24-04_poster_web_qr

This conference will take place at EMBL Heidelberg, with the option to attend virtually.

 

Conference Overview

The nucleus houses the genome and plays a central role in all cellular processes. Over the last decade, advances in modern genomics have provided important insight into 3D genome organization but the underlying cell biology of the nucleus is often not considered. The nucleus is not just a passive scaffold for the genome: it is a highly dynamic organelle with a suite of unique mechanisms that help control its biochemical compartmentalization, its integration into both intra and extracellular mechanical networks, and its response to pathological and environmental insults. The goal of this conference is to showcase the cell biological mechanisms that define the nucleus as an organelle.

To meet this goal, we intend to bring together scientists from a range of backgrounds working on different aspects of the nucleus, including nuclear architecture, nuclear envelope remodeling, nuclear transport, nuclear mechanics, molecular machines, nuclear divisions, evolution, and biophysics of the nucleus.
