SUMMARY:Institut Jacques Monod seminar- Baptiste Libé Philippot
DESCRIPTION:Invited by the Konstantinides Lab\, Baptiste Libé Philippot will present an Institut Jacques Monod seminar on the theme: \nCellular and molecular mechanisms underlying human neuronal and circuit evolution \nAbstract: \nBaptiste Libé-Philippot is a CNRS Chargé de recherche and Group Leader at the IBDM (Marseille\, France) since October 2024. He explores the evolution of the development and the properties of human cerebellar neurons and circuits\, with the support of an ERC StG Grant (hCerebEvol). His team “Human Neuronal Evolution” performs cross-species histological comparisons of neuronal morphology\, synaptic innervation and gene expression across the cerebellar development\, in human and other primate species\, to identify human species-specific cellular features. To explore the underlying mechanisms and their functional impact\, his team uses mouse gain-of-function models as well as loss-of-function approaches in human models derived from pluripotent stem cells. This project follows a postdoctoral training in the laboratory of Pierre Vanderhaeghen (VIB – KULeuven\, Belgium) in which he explored the evolutionary divergence of human cortical neurons (Libé-Philippot et al.\, Cell\, 2023 & Neuron\, 2024). This work was honored by the Awards Claude Paoletti (CNRS\, 2024) and Albert Brachet (Royal Academy of Belgium\, 2025).

SUMMARY:Institut Jacques Monod seminar - Christa Buecker
DESCRIPTION:Invited by the Greenberg lab\, Christa Buecker (Associate Professor at Max Perutz Labs\, University Vienna will present an Institut Jacques Monod seminar on the theme: \nBuilding to understand: Enhancer-Promoter Communication in the Context of Regulatory Landscapes \nAbstract: \nEnhancers can regulate promoters from a distance\, but it is still unclear how they establish this  communication. Furthermore\, multiple enhancers often control the activity of the same gene\, yet their interactions remain elusive. We have established a synthetic framework to build regulatory landscapes within the genome of mouse embryonic stem cells to dissect enhancer promoter communication. We have now expanded our toolbox to test enhancer libraries\, alone or in combination with other elements\, to identify principles of distal gene regulation.

SUMMARY:Ctrl+Epi+Edit\, Engineering the Epigenome
DESCRIPTION:Epigenome editing is a rapidly emerging field that has the potential to revolutionise genomic medicine by offering new ways to precisely program gene expression and treat a range of diseases. Precision control of the epigenome and gene activity is further unlocking key mechanistic insights into a wide variety of molecular and cellular processes. The potential of epigenome editing technologies for both research and therapeutic applications has thus led to widespread excitement over the last five years\, in areas ranging from neurobiology\, to high-throughput (epi)genomics to agriculture. As the technologies continue to emerge and the epigenome editing field begins to coalesce\, we feel now is the time to bring interdisciplinary experts and leaders in the field together. This will enable\, for the first time\, epigenome editors and related disciplines to collectively discuss the technology\, its applications and ethics\, and the exciting scientific insights being generated. Such a symposium will help to accelerate progress in this field by facilitating collaborations between researchers and providing a platform for the dissemination of new discoveries and techniques. It will also help to raise broader awareness of this exciting emerging science and its potential to transform precision medicine. \n\n\n\n\nTime and Place\n\nThe meeting will take place from November 16-17  at Institut Jacques Monod in the heart of Paris\, France \nWe will have two half day sessions\, and a poster session over cocktails and light bites \n\n\n\nKey Dates\n\n\nAbstract Submission: October 1\, 2026 \nRegistration: November 9\, 2026 \n\n\n\n\nInvited Speakers\n\n🧬 Gabriella Ficz (QMUL\, UK) \n🧬 Charles Gersbach (Duke University\, USA) \n🧬 Jamie Hackett (EMBL Rome\, Italy) \n🧬 Jake Harris (Cambridge University\, UK) \n🧬 Angelo Lombardo (San Raffaele University\, Italy) \n🧬 Reini Luco (Institut Curie\, France) \n🧬 Mariane Rots (UMCG\, Netherlands) \n🧬 Edda Schulz (MPI Berlin\, Germany) \n🧬 Stefan Stricker (Helmholtz Munich\, Germany) \nMore speakers will be selected from abstracts! \nYou can find all the informations regarding the symposium\, the registration and abstract submission here  \nhttp://www.ijm.fr/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/affiche.jpg
