Epigenetics workshop-Seminar Serie 7th-15th Nov 2022
The Nuclear architecture in physiology - Charlène Boumendil - and the Chromatin and cell biology - Giacomo CAVALLI - are thrilled to announce our next workshop in Epigenetics, from November 07th to November 15th.
We have a fantastic speakers line up (see below and attached flyer), all seminars will take place at 2pm in the Genopolys Amphitheatre.

Programmed DNA elimination in the ciliate Paramecium: from molecular mechanism to evolution
With its nuclear dimorphism, the ciliate Paramecium provides a powerful unicellular model to study how eukaryotic genomes cope with transposable elements (TEs). During evolution, the Paramecium germline genome, hosted in two transcriptionally silent micronuclei, has been continuously colonized by TEs, including in essential coding regions. Functional gene expression relies on the programmed elimination of parasitic sequences, which takes place at each sexual cycle in the transcription-prone somatic...
For those who need to do analyses of DNA-seq (including de novo assembly), RNA-seq, ChIP seq (these are just examples), and who would be interested in a software to help you in these kinds of analyses (with intuitive tools, guides and tutorials), there will be a presentation of CLC Genomics Workbench from QIAGEN. The presentation of this software will be given by Elodie Dubus, a Qiagen software specialist, and for those who have already started to work with this software and want to go deeper in...
Jonathan Chubb (UCL Laboratory for Molecular Cell Biology, London, UK) did his post-doc with R. Singer ~15 years ago, where he discovered gene bursting using the MS2 system. Since then, he has done a lot of live cell transcription imaging and published many interesting stories.
