EMBO | EMBL Symposium: DNA replication: from basic biology to disease
This conference will take place at EMBL Heidelberg, with the option to attend virtually. The virtual platform will be opened ahead of the conference and available for two weeks after the conference. This is where you will find the link to the livestream, the abstract book, bus schedule as well as on-demand recordings of the talks.
Symposium overview
There has been tremendous progress in the past few years regarding our understanding of DNA replication in eukaryotes, both yeast and mammals. Many important questions in the field are poised to be answered within the next decade. These include understanding DNA replication at the biochemical and three-dimensional protein structure levels. In addition, studies using high throughput technologies at the cellular and organismal levels are poised to answer how accurate replication of the genome is ensured by controlling origin firing in space and time.
