Presentation of NEW Scientific Field: Chemical "EPI" Genomics
This symposium will introduce you to the new research field of Chemical "EPI" Genomics - a synergistic combination of three hot research areas of Stem Cell Biology, Epigenetics and Chemical Biology. It should give us new insights into current life sciences applications, such as drug development, etc. The discussions will be led by experts from NUS, Waseda University and other Japanese research institutions.
Organized by
Medicinal Chemistry Programme, Life Sciences Institute, NUS
Institute of Chemical Biology, Waseda University
