The UBC Centennial Emerging Research Workshop on Epigenetics will be held on April 27-29, 2016.

This workshop aims to bring together researchers across UBC in this relatively new but already complex area to better understand and raise the profile of epigenetics research at UBC.

The workshop will include presentations from UBC and international scholars showcasing the latest research being conducted in this field. An event to highlight the impact of epigenetic research to the general public will be held the evening of April 27th at Science World (detailed information available soon).

Registration for the workshop will open shortly.
