About the Scientific Symposium

Each autumn, the Centre for Genomic Regulation leads one of the most exciting scientific events in Barcelona: the CRG Symposium.

This year’s 13th edition will be held on November the 6th – 7th at the Barcelona Biomedical Research Park auditorium, under the title “Gene Regulation, Stem Cells and Cancer.”

Beyond gene and chromosome structure, epigenetic and genomic regulation, the 13th edition of the CRG symposium will bring into focus topics such as aging, cell transformation, cancer progression, gene transfer, cell therapy, embryonic development or reprogramming of cell fate. Year after year, the CRG Symposium draws together international leading scientists to present the most exciting developments happening in the field. Indeed, the 13th CRG Symposium seeks to stimulate the interaction among those devoted to take the scientific challenges facing the fields of gene regulation, stem cell, and cancer research today. In addition to the hosts, other major names in these fields have already confirmed their attendance to the 13th CRG symposium as leading speakers.

Showcased through extended poster sessions and highlighted by keynote presentations, this two-days symposium in gene regulation, stem cell and cancer research is not to be missed!
