| description | Abstract The 7th International Conference on Epigenetics & Bioengineering held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands was a successful event covering cutting-edge research utilizing innovative technologies from multidisciplinary international scientists in the fields of epigenetics and bioengineering, with an emphasis on development and disease. This conference report highlights the outstanding research presented and the engaging discussions that took place. Throughout the sessions, leading experts demonstrated novel technologies to explore epigenetic mechanisms, including advanced data analysis pipelines and bioengineered systems. Several speakers uncovered emerging fundamental principles and demonstrated how these insights are being applied to address (bio)medical challenges, underscoring that the field is progressing toward (pre)clinical applications of targeted epigenetic therapies. The conference featured stimulating discussions on the causal relationship between epigenetic marks and transcription, emphasizing the importance of standardizing epigenetic editing methodologies. |
