FASEB SRC announces conference registration open for: Histone Deacetylases, Sirtuins, and Reversible Acetylation in Sign

February 4th, 2013

The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) announces the opening of registration for the Science Research Conference (SRC): Gastrointestinal Tract XV: Epithelia, Microbes, Inflammation and Cancer.

The 2013 conference on Histone Deacetylases, Sirtuins, and Reversible Acetylation in Signaling and Disease is an important and unique scientific conference where the biological functions of reversible protein acetylation are explored through formal talks, poster sessions, and intensive scientific discussion. The underlying theme for the 2013 conference is how targeting the enzymes that "write", "erase", and "read" protein acetylation marks can be exploited for therapeutic benefit in in a wide range of diseases.

This meeting includes outstanding researchers from around the world presenting cutting edge research directed towards understanding how reversible acetylation is linked to fundamental processes such as genome stability, DNA replication, gene expression, and metabolism and how this impacts stem cell functions, aging, neurodegeneration, and cancer development.

FASEB SRC has announced a total of 34 SRCs in 2013. To register for an SRC, view preliminary programs, or find a listing of all our 2013 SRCs, please visit www.faseb.org/SRC.
