Wed. Dec 3, 2025 5:20 AM - 7:20 AM UTC
Room 9(Pacifico Yokohama Conference Center 4F, 411+412)
Organizer: Kristian Jeppsson (The University of Tokyo), Toyonori Sakata (The University of Tokyo)
Chromosomes are dynamically organized in three-dimensional space to allow the proper expression, repair and duplication of the genetic material. By introducing new insights from cutting-edge techniques such as genome-wide sequencing and single-molecule analyses, this symposium aims to shed light on the mechanisms controlling chromosome structure and their relationship with diseases.
