Update: Due to the current public health crisis, our Symposium has been rescheduled for October 2021. Additional details are forthcoming.

The UC Irvine Center for Epigenetics & Metabolism (CEM) will hold its biennial international symposium "Epigenetic Control and Cellular Plasticity" on October 8^th and 9^th, 2020.

The event is part of a series of symposia on epigenetics and chromatin research aimed at bringing together the scientific community in the field. The two-day symposium will focus on how epigenetic control and chromatin remodeling contribute to various processes that lead to cellular plasticity. Understanding the molecular mechanisms responsible for this level of control will bring essential information for future strategies in pharmacology, stem cell biology, and therapeutics.

Date: October 8^th and 9^th, 2020 

Location: Beckman Center of the National Academies of Sciences and Engineering in Irvine, CA 

Registration

Early registration is recommended because the symposium will be limited to 225 participants. The registration fee includes participation in all sessions, lunches, coffee breaks on both days, as well as a reception and dinner on Thursday, October 8^th, 2020.  

The Center for Epigenetics and Metabolism is pleased to lower registration fees from the 2018 International Symposium.

Registration deadline: TBD

• $80.00 — Students (undergraduate and graduate)
• $150.00 — Academics (faculty, postdoctoral scholars, university staff)
• $300.00 — Non-academics
