This project supports the 2015 Gordon Research Seminar and Conference on Epigenetics, which will be held August 1-7, 2015 at Bentley University in Waltham, MA. The scientific program of talks and poster sessions, combined with the small size of the meeting, will encourage informal discussion and networking and will catalyze stimulating interactions and sharing of the most exciting research in the field of epigenetics. Concerted efforts to include and broaden participation by early-career scientists will diversify engagement by young researchers, some of whom will become the next generation of leaders in the field.The Epigenetics Gordon Research Seminar, which precedes the Conference, is entitled "Mechanisms of Mitotic and Meiotic Epigenetic Inheritance" and has been organized by two graduate students. It will feature a keynote address from a leader in the field, talks selected from the abstracts, and a panel discussion centered on careers in science. The Epigenetics Gordon Research Conference is entitled "Epigenetic Dynamics: Roles in Development, Inheritance and Responses to the Environment." Co-organized by two leading researchers in the field, the program features talks and poster sessions addressing a range of topics, including: RNA-dependent modes of epigenetic regulation, new epigenetic phenomena, epigenetic control of development and dosage, epigenetic control of genome integrity, epigenetics and nuclear organization, dynamics and inheritance of epigenetics states, and targeted epigenetic modifications.

该项目支持 2015 年戈登研究研讨会和表观遗传学会议，该会议将于 2015 年 8 月 1 日至 7 日在马萨诸塞州沃尔瑟姆的本特利大学举行。讲座和海报会议的科学计划，加上会议的小规模，将鼓励非正式讨论和交流，并将促进表观遗传学领域最令人兴奋的研究的刺激互动和分享。共同努力包括和扩大早期职业科学家的参与将使年轻研究人员的参与多样化，其中一些人将成为该领域的下一代领导者。在会议之前举行的表观遗传学戈登研究研讨会的标题是“有丝分裂的机制”和减数分裂表观遗传”，由两名研究生组织。它将包括该领域领导者的主题演讲、摘自摘要的演讲以及以科学职业为中心的小组讨论。表观遗传学戈登研究会议的标题是“表观遗传学动力学：在发展、遗传和对环境的反应中的作用”。该计划由该领域的两位领先研究人员共同组织，以演讲和海报会议为特色，讨论一系列主题，包括：表观遗传调控的 RNA 依赖性模式、新的表观遗传现象、发育和剂量的表观遗传控制、基因组完整性的表观遗传控制，表观遗传学和核组织，表观遗传学状态的动力学和遗传，以及有针对性的表观遗传修饰。
