SUMMARY:RNA structure meets function
DESCRIPTION:Recent developments in sequencing technology have revealed widespread transcription of the eukaryotic genome\, uncovering an overwhelming quantity of novel functional RNAs. The list of these RNAs is constantly increasing and already includes lncRNAs\, circular RNAs and enhancer RNAs. The basic mechanisms of action of these RNAs remain to be elucidated and are most likely highly correlated with RNA secondary and tertiary structure\, as previously found in examples of other RNAs\, e.g. ribosomal RNAs and tRNAs. Nevertheless\, the connection between RNA structural biology and RNA function is still in its infancy. Therefore\, the overall aim of this EMBO Workshop is to promote scientific exchange and synergies across the fields of RNA structure and RNA function\, by gathering leading established and upcoming scientists to discuss and exchange the most recent advances in these areas and cutting-edge technologies to tackle them. \nRNA structure meets function<style type=”text/css”> #if-noJS {	display:block; } #menu\, #stamp {	top:50px; }< /style>  \n\n\n\n\n\nAmong the topics to be covered in the EMBO Workshop are: \n\nstructural RNA biology\nlarge RNA complexes\nregulatory RNAs and chromatin\nRNA dynamics\nregulatory & non-coding RNAs

SUMMARY:Wellcome Trust - Waddington Symposium: Epigenetics in dialogue with the genome
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the home page of the Wellcome Trust – Waddington Symposium Epigenetics in dialogue with THE GENOME \nThe epigenetics field encompasses diverse opinions – even the definition of the word is controversial. How much our own make-up is genetic and what proportion of it is epigenetically determined is also hotly debated. Moreover\, the ability of apparent epigenetic phenotypes (epi-alleles) to be propagated through the germline to the next generation (transgenerational epigenetic inheritance) remains contentious. These conceptual arguments take place against a background of increasing research activity – epigenetics is one of the most active areas in biomedical research. Large-scale mapping projects\, for example\, provide increasingly detailed descriptions of the “epigenome”\, raising as yet incompletely answered questions about the biological role of these chemical marks. Meanwhile there is growing interest in the therapeutic potential of “epigenetic drugs” that can modulate the epigenetic landscape. Genes encoding proteins that read\, write or erase epigenetic marks are often mutated in cancer or in neurological disease. The purpose of this meeting is to provide a forum where the breadth of biological phenomena that impinge on epigenetics can be presented by leading international figures in epigenetics research. The selected speakers reflects our wish that alternative views will be aired and constructively discussed. Our intention is that this will be seen as a landmark meeting\, contributing clarity to one of the most exciting areas of contemporary biomedical research.

SUMMARY:Chromatin Structure and Function: Regulating and Re-Engineering Chromatin: Control of Genome Function
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Description\n\nThe 2016 Gordon Conference on Chromatin Structure and Function will present leading-edge research on chromatin and its role in regulating gene expression\, genome function and cell states. The meeting will highlight how chromatin structures\, ranging from the nucleosome – the “building block” of chromatin – up to the dynamic three-dimensional spatial organization of chromatin\, are regulated and how they control genome functions. \nQuestions at the frontier of the field will be addressed – how is the activity of chromatin proteins regulated\, what is the cross-talk between different chromatin states\, how does folding of chromatin allow for long-range gene regulation\, what is the role of RNA in directing chromatin structure? \nPresentations will encompass a wide variety of technical approaches – from Angstrom level description of chromatin components to visualization of micron-scale structures by light microscopy\, and the use of quantitative proteomics and computational modeling. There will be a focus on new methods for engineering and re-engineering chromatin states to determine the relationships between chromatin structure and function\, and on analysis at the level of single molecules and single cells. \nThis conference has a long history of attracting the very top researchers in the area of chromatin structure and function\, and is an important forum for fostering new ideas\, interactions and collaborations. We aim to integrate new members into this growing field; talks will be reserved for young scientists and minorities\, and all applicants will have the opportunity to present a poster on their work. Many platform presentation topics will be selected from submitted abstracts to ensure inclusion of the latest developments during the formal sessions. Sufficient discussion time will be scheduled into every session to promote the lively exchange of ideas and interpretations and there will be ample time set aside in the afternoons and after the evening sessions for the informal interactions that have always played a key role at this conference.

SUMMARY:Epigenetic and Metabolic Regulation of Aging and Aging-Related Diseases
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Summary \nAging poses formidable scientific\, medical and societal challenges. Old age is the single most important risk factor for a constellation of diseases\, including cardiovascular disease\, cancer\, diabetes and a range of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. Aging is also one of the greatest fundamental mysteries in biology\, and arguably its next frontier. Long thought to be inexorable\, aging has in fact been shown to be malleable due to specific changes in genes or environment. This Keystone Symposia meeting will cover the most exciting questions at the forefront of the field: How can external stimuli delay aging in a long-lasting\, yet reversible\, manner? Does the integration of external stimuli to modulate aging differ among cells with vastly diverse functions – somatic maintenance\, tissue regeneration and the “immortal” germline? Is aging a synchronous process\, and how do the different cells and systems communicate? How do diseases of aging develop\, and what can be done to prevent or reverse them? To address these questions\, the symposium will gather investigators from completely different areas to bring an interdisciplinary approach to aging. The meeting will focus on the emerging nexus between two key aging regulators – epigenetic states of the genome and metabolic status – and will highlight innovative technologies and the newest discoveries in aging and diseases. This symposium will also address questions from different perspectives\, taking advantage of model organisms with drastically divergent lifespans and aging strategies. Importantly\, this meeting will particularly discuss human aging and its associated traits – frailty\, susceptibility to diseases – and potential aging therapeutics.

SUMMARY:3rd Annual Epigenetic  Inhibitor Discovery  - Targeting Histone Methyltransferases\, Demethylases and Bromodomains
DESCRIPTION:Targeting epigenetic modifiers and readers\, particularly histone methyltransferases\, demethylases and bromodomain-containing proteins have recently set the foundation for a new generation of anti-cancer drugs. Over the past few years\, several companies have developed and successfully moved novel compounds targeting EZH2\, DOT1L\, LSD1\, and a collection of BET bromodomain inhibitors into clinical studies. As these compounds continue to progress\, developers are now focused on the discovery of new targets and designing novel inhibitors to expand into this robust target space. Of particular interest for discovery are non-BET bromodomain proteins and methyl lysine readers; arginine methyltransferases; and JmjC-domain containing demethylases. \nCambridge Healthtech Institute will once again convene leaders in Epigenetic Inhibitor Discovery to bring forth novel and emerging strategies for inhibition\, new bioactive tools and inhibitors\, as well as strategies for lead optimization to obtain clinically relevant small molecules.

SUMMARY:Chromatin and Epigenetics
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Summary\n\nThe DNA of eukaryotic cells is organized into chromatin fibers\, where the nucleosome is the basic repeating unit. Chromatin is thus at the core of fundamental processes such as gene regulation\, stem cell fate determination and cancer. By and large\, these topics have traditionally been covered by separated meetings. However\, recent literature indicates that the boundaries among these various disciplines are becoming less clear. This meeting will bring together scientists studying chromatin structure\, epigenetics\, stem cell biology and cancer. The talks will cover a broad range of topics\, including chromosome organization\, long-range interactions\, chromatin assembly\, stem cell regulation/differentiation\, RNA-based mechanisms and transcription regulation. Speakers have been selected to broadly reflect lessons learned from a variety of model organisms and experimental approaches. Young scientists will be able to present their work through a large number of short talks selected from submitted abstracts as well as through poster presentation. There will also be ample time for exchanging ideas and discussing novel hypothesis at the end of each session\, as well as time for informal interactions and networking.

DESCRIPTION:Meeting Summary\n\nOver the past decade\, there has been a greater understanding of genomic complexity in eukaryotes ushered in by the immense technological advances in high-throughput sequencing of DNA and its corresponding RNA transcripts. This has resulted in the realization that beyond protein-coding genes\, there are a large number of transcripts that do not encode for proteins and\, therefore\, may perform their function through RNA sequences and/or through secondary and tertiary structural determinants. This Keystone Symposia meeting is focused on the latest findings concerning different classes of noncoding RNAs that use different strategies to regulate transcription. These are exciting times for discovering the biological scope and the mechanism of action for these RNA molecules\, which have roles in dosage compensation\, imprinting\, enhancer function and transcriptional regulation\, with a consequently great impact in development and disease.

SUMMARY:Metabolism\, Transcription and Disease
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Summary\n\nTo maintain homeostasis\, cells need to coordinate gene expression and metabolic state. There is increasing evidence that misregulation of metabolic flux and gene transcription plays a major role in human diseases\, including obesity\, diabetes and cancer. The aim of this meeting is to explore how metabolic state influences gene expression programs and\, conversely\, how intermediary metabolism is controlled by the transcription machinery and chromatin-modulating enzymes. Particular emphasis will be on the connection between gene transcription and metabolism in homeostatic and diseased state. Emerging evidence emphasizes that chromatin-modifying enzymes depend on substrates\, or co-factors\, that are key components of intermediary metabolism. The cellular concentration of these metabolites fluctuates in response to\, for example\, nutrient availability\, circadian cycles or oncogenic transformation. Thus\, chromatin might be considered a sensor of metabolic state. Moreover\, some metabolic enzymes play surprisingly direct roles in transcription control. Conversely\, transcriptional control of metabolic enzyme expression\, for example by nuclear receptors or the oncogene Myc\, plays a major role in maintaining homeostasis\, circadian rhythm or driving cell growth and proliferation. The aim of this Keystone Symposia meeting is to bring together scientists working on basic aspects of transcription control\, epigenetics\, metabolic disease and cancer. The meeting should serve as a discussion platform to explore the rapidly growing interphase between transcription regulation\, metabolic reprogramming and human disease.

SUMMARY:USCAP 108th Annual Meeting: ASCP & ASIP Joint Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Current and Future Revolution in Pathology Practice: (Focus on) Immuno-oncology and Cancer Epigenetics \nASIP/ASCP will bring together 4 speakers from across two unique disciplines of pathology to discuss the practice\, science\, and challenges of immuno-oncology and cancer epigenetics intended to inform and education residents\, fellows\, and practicing pathologists.  The course will begin with a practical discussion of IO in current practice (Mamatha Chivukula\, Sutter Health\, CA) from the perspective of a community-based pathologist. This segment will review the current landscape of “companion diagnostics” in the immuno-oncology space including but not limited to treatment-specific biomarker assessment (PD-1)\, tumor mutational burden\, sequencing\, etc.\, with specific emphasis on treatment selection challenges\, quality across the testing/reporting spectrum\, pitfalls\, and practical solutions. This will be followed up by a discussion of cutting-edge science in the IO space (Mike Milone\, UPenn) with emphasis on those technologies and tools that are likely to move into clinical space soon. This same approach to cancer epigenetics (David Williams\, UNC) will be revealed and discussed in the third presentation. Both of these cutting-edge talks will identify current and forthcoming basic and translational science in immuno-oncology and cancer epigenetics likely to generate immediate or future diagnostics.  To finish off\, a “future talk” focused on how cancer epigenetics will affect patient care and everyday diagnostics will be presented (Idriss M. Bennani-Baiti\, President\, Cancer Epigenetics Society\, Vienna\, Austria). This portion will assess the implications for the practicing pathologist of current and future science in cancer epigenetics to daily practice and best patient care. \nCourse Learning Objectives\nUpon completion of this educational activity\, the learner will be able to: \n\nReview the current landscape of “companion diagnostics” in the immuno-oncology space including but not limited to treatment-specific biomarker assessment (PD-1)\, tumor mutational burden\, sequencing\, etc. with specific emphasis on treatment selection challenges\, quality across the testing/reporting spectrum\, pitfalls\, and practical solutions\nIdentify current and forthcoming basic and translational science in immuno-oncology and cancer epigenetics likely to generate immediate or future diagnostics\nAssess the implications for the practicing pathologist of current and future science in cancer epigenetics to daily practice and best patient care\n\n\nSESSION CHAIRS\n\n\nModerator \nDanny Milner\, MD\, MSc\, ASCP\n\n\n\n\n\nPRESENTATIONS\n\n\n1:30 PM\n1:35 PM\n\n\nIntroduction to the Session and Outline of the Symposium Objectives\n\n\nDanny Milner\, MD\, MSc\nASCP\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1:35 PM\n2:10 PM\n\n\n“Immunotherapy” From Bench to Community Practice- Are Pathologists Ready for the #gamechanger?\n\n\nMamatha Chivukula\, MD\, FASCP\nMills-Peninsula Hospital\, Sutter Health Affiliate\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2:10 PM\n2:45 PM\n\n\nCutting Edge Science in Immuno-Oncology: Where to next?\n\n\nMichael Milone\, MD\, Phd\nUniversity of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2:45 PM\n3:20 PM\n\n\nBreak\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3:20 PM\n3:55 PM\n\n\nFrom DNA Methylation to Chromatin Remodeling\, the Expanding Role of Epigenetic Changes in Cancer Biology\n\n\nDavid Williams\, MD\, PhD\nUniversity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3:55 PM\n4:30 PM\n\n\nPractical Epigenetics: How Today’s Cancer Epigenetics Research Will Change the Field of Pathology Tomorrow\n\n\nIdriss Bennani-Baiti\, PhD\nChildren’s Cancer Research Institute Vienna\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4:30 PM\n5:00 PM\n\n\nPanel Discussion\n\n\nDanny Milner\, MD\, MSc
