EpiCypher had an exciting first half of 2024 – including the release of our improved CUTANA™ CUT&Tag Kit Version 2.0 and the all-new CUTANA™ Quick Cleanup DNA Purification Kit. Behind-the-scenes our scientists have been busy attending several conferences, including Keystone Symposia, AGBT, and AACR, to present our latest R&D and learn about advancements in chromatin biology. Below, find five conferences we are looking forward to attending in the second half of 2024, and don’t forget to check out our full list of chromatin biology conferences here!


  1. 55th Annual Meeting of the EMGS

    Environmental Mutagenesis and Genomics Society (EMGS)

    Dates: September 7 – 11, 2024

    Location: Palm Springs, California, United States

    Keynote Speakers: Philip C. Hanawalt, Ting Wang, Wei Yang, Qi Chen

    Held in iconic Palm Springs, the EMGS Annual Meeting brings together scientists from industry, academia, government, and regulatory agencies to discuss the latest research in environmental mutagenesis. This year looks particularly exciting with sessions focusing on applying epigenetics to environmental health and toxicology research, heritable epigenetic effects, and epigenetic changes following toxicant exposure. Register by July 15 for early bird pricing; late breaking abstracts are due by August 15!


  2. Epigenetics & Chromatin

    Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL)

    Dates: September 17 – 21, 2024

    Location: Cold Spring Harbor, New York, United States

    Organizers: Karen Adelman, Anja Groth, Bing Ren

    Keynote Speakers: Asifa Akhtar, Kristian Helin

    Meet the leaders in chromatin biology at CSHL’s seventh meeting on epigenetics and chromatin. This meeting is jam-packed with sessions on everything from chromatin structure to epigenetics in development and disease. Don’t delay – abstracts and registration are open now through June 28.


  3. Transcriptional regulation by chromatin and RNA polymerase

    American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB)

    Dates: September 26 – 30, 2024

    Location: Alexandria, Virginia, United States

    Organizers: W. Lee Kraus, Y. Jessie Zhang, Dylan J. Taatjes
