This visit is sponsored by Université Paris Cité and the hosting research center for September, and by the Labex Who Am I? for October and November. Yoichi Shinkai and Pierre-Antoine Defossez work together on a project called “Functional screenings for research in epigenetics”.
Four talks by Professor Shinkai are planned:
- Monday, September 18, 2023, Epigenetics and Cell Fate Centre
“Histone modifications in genome regulation”
More information - Tuesday, October 3, 2023, seminar series by the MEG and EUR GENE
“Epigenetics in biological activities”
