Through its many applications (e.g. single cell genome sequencing\, single cell transcriptomics\, and various single cell epigenetic profiling approaches)\, researchers can characterize the genetic and functional properties of individual cells in their native conditions\, leading to numerous experimental and clinical opportunities. \nAs technology is developing\, many critical questions are arising: \n\nWhich technologies are going to set the standard in the field?\nHow many cells needed to be sampled? How should sampling be designed and optimized?\nHow can the behaviour of groups of hundreds or thousands of single cells be analysed and modelled?\nWhat is the importance of modelling when precise single-cell-states are available?\nHow can single cell genomics and epigenomics be integrated?\nWhat are the immediate implications for immunology\, cancer research and germ cells?\n\nThese questions will be the focus of discussions at this year’s meeting. This conference will bring together biologists\,  methods developers\, computational modellers and genomics researchers interested in understanding biological variation at the single cell level.

Biology is an experimental science that is experiencing an explosion of new data. This requires biologists to increase the scale and sophistication of the information technology used for their research. \nThe conference scope encompasses a wide range of methods for the analysis of these data\, including a focus on technologies such as variant-calling\, transcriptomic analysis\, and variant interpretation\, applied to very large genomic data sets. This meeting alternates between Hinxton\, UK and Cold Spring Harbor\, New York.

Space is limited so early registration is recommended. Registration will close 1 September 2016.\nEpigenetics and Chromatin are playing fundamental roles in the development of organisms as well as the development of pathologies\, such as cancer. This series of meetings will aim to bring together both the scientists studying the fundamentals of chromatin and epigenetics\, and those scientists studying specific systems or diseases that chromatin dynamics could be impacting. We hope that this journal club will inspire dialog\, lots of questions\, future collaborations\, and most of all\, energetic exchange. The meeting will have at least two keynote speakers and a selection of talks from trainees (e.g.\, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows).
