The Cambridge Epigenetics Club talks are organised by Rosana Collepardo Guevara, Ian Henderson, Iva Tchasovnikarova and Peter Rugg-Gunn, and are sponsored by biomodal.
The Cambridge Epigenetics Club has been running since 2010. Its role is to bring students, postdocs and group leaders from the Cambridge epigenetics/chromatin community together to hear the latest advances in the field and provide an opportunity to get together for informal discussions.
