Seminars & Events

The tri-national "Gene Regulation Club" is a half-day symposium that brings together chromatin, epigenetics, and transcription groups from within the Strasbourg (IGBMC), Freiburg (MPI-IE), and Basel (FMI) area. With an informal but high-quality atmosphere, the meeting aims to foster discussion and inspire new and strengthen existing collaborations. The meeting encourages PhD students and Postdocs to present their work. [more]

We are delighted to invite you to our upcoming symposium, "Epigenetics of Early Mouse Development," taking place on June 13, 2024, at the Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics in Freiburg. [more]

The Stelzer lab on Epigenetics in Development and Disease is interested in unraveling one of biology's most intriguing puzzles: how a single fertilized egg develops into a full-fledged embryo through a short period of growth and cellular differentiation, despite every cell sharing the same genetic blueprint. Yonatan Stelzer joins the Max Planck Special Guest Lecture Series with a talk on “Spatiotemporal models of mammalian development: An epigeneticist's dream or nightmare?” [more]

Started in 2012 at the MPI-IE, the “Forschung höchstpersönlich” talk series offers a platform for our scientists to present their research to non-scientific staff, enhancing understanding and collaboration. Held quarterly and conducted in German, the talks are hosted by the institute's Public Relations Officer, fostering a deeper connection within the institute. [more]

The international meeting on the broad area of epigenetics and chromatin takes place at the MPI of Immunobiology and Epigenetics in Freiburg on 4 - 6 December 2024. [more]
