The EU FP7 funded research consortium 'Model-In' invites you to participate in its open workshop focused on quantitative description of the transcriptional control of the inflammatory response.

The workshop will be led by the members of the Model-In consortium with experience in transcription factor - DNA interactions, chromatin organization, genome manipulation, computational analysis and systems biology and will include presentations from invited speakers on other highly complementary aspects of transcriptional control, such as transcriptional factories and nuclear architecure.

Postgraduate students and early stage researchers are invited to submit poster abstracts to the organising committee and a number of these will be selected for oral presentations on the 2nd day of the meeting.

A number of bursaries to support attendance of postgraduate students and early stage researchers are available.

For further information, abstract submission and bursary applications please contact Conny Jumel (k.jumel@imperial.ac.uk)

Extended deadline for abstract submission and bursary application: 2 March 2012
