Rare Disease Epigenetics Symposium
Epigenetics is an ever-evolving field, offering significant insights into the molecular mechanisms of rare diseases and expanding the translational opportunities. The Rare Disease Epigenetics Symposium, organized by the İzmir Biomedicine and Genome Center under the RareBoost project, will spotlight the latest scientific advancements and innovative research tools in epigenetics, and discuss clinical cases of rare diseases, with a particular focus on data from the Turkish population.
This event will feature talks by leading experts, including Dr. Siddharth Banka (University of Manchester, UK) and Dr. Stefan Barakat (Erasmus MC, Netherlands), as well as prominent Turkish scientists, who will share their expertise in advancing the understanding of rare diseases through epigenetics.
Join us to explore the intersection of epigenetics and rare diseases, shaping the future of diagnostics and therapies.
