The workshop will take place in Leiden, Netherlands, from June 17 to 20, 2024.
Deadline for the registration: April 1, 2024.
More than 24 international speakers will cover the following topics:
(i) DNA repair in nuclear/chromatin domains,
(ii) histone modifications following damage: writers, reader, erasers,
(iii) nucleosome modification following DNA damage (remodellers, chaperones and histone variants),
(iv) replication stress and endogenous damage,
(v) transcription and RNA in DNA repair,
(vi) chromatin movement and physical constraints.

New research article on the role of SETDB1 in regulating inflammation and fibrosis in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
In this paper, we show that SETDB1 regulates the TGFβ-induced secretome and identify EMILIN1, an extracellular matrix protein, as a novel player in this process. EMILIN1 is overexpressed in muscle biopsies from DMD patients and influences both myogenic differentiation...
