This event has passed. Check out our upcoming Networking Events.

This event brings together people with interest and expertise in quantitative studies of protein-nucleic acid interactions and dynamics in genetic and epigenetic regulation. It intends to bridge statistical and bioinformatic characterization of representative protein-DNA systems with biophysical and biochemical approaches.
