Recent technology developments in imaging and genome sequencing have uncovered novel chromatin structures in higher order. This symposium will explore the chromatin structure, its dynamics, and its relationship with cellular functions and diseases. It will also provide an interdisciplinary discussion of the chromatin structure from multiple viewpoints, including mathematics, biochemistry, cell biology, and bioinformatics.
