Mechanisms of Recombination conference
OVERVIEW
The Francis Crick Institute Mechanisms of Recombination conference is organized by The Francis Crick Institute and will be held during May 20 - 22, 2018 at Francis Crick Institute, London, England, United Kingdom. The target audience for this medical event is Oncologists.
Course Description :
Genetic recombination provides an important mechanism for the repair of chromosome breaks caused by DNA damage or replication fork demise. Defects in the recombination process have been linked to cancer predisposition, in particular, breast cancers caused by mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2, and also acute leukemias associated with the rare genetic disease Fanconi anemia. Understanding precisely how recombination occurs is of interest to workers in the fields of meiosis, DNA repair, replication, chromosome architecture and interactions, and chromatin biology.
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
