Invited by the Konstantinides Lab, Dafni Hadjieconomou (Team leader at the GutSense lab, Paris Brain Institute (ICM)) will present an Institut Jacques Monod Seminars on the theme: "Mind the gut" a tale of two brains   Abstract: A series of tightly controlled processes ensure that energy is either stored or consumed within an organism. This control is central…

Invited by the Prioleau Lab, Ichiro Hiratani (RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research (RIKEN BDR), Kobe, Japan) will present an Institut Jacques Monod Seminar on the theme: Unraveling the dynamic 3D genome architecture through single-cell DNA replication profiling   Abstract: Hi-C technology has revolutionized genome biology, revealing that mammalian chromosomes are partitioned into megabase-sized topologically associating domains (TADs).…

Invited by the Ladoux/Mège Lab, Jacopo Di Russo (REMeD lab - Interdisciplinary Centre for Clinical Research, RWTH Aachen University and DWI – Leibniz-Institute for Interactive Materials) will present an IJM seminar on the theme: Mesoscale Epithelial Mechanobiology and Cellular Interfaces   Abstract: Mechanical properties regulate tissue functions at a multicellular length scale or mesoscale. These properties depend on…

Invited by the Gazave, Anaïs Bardet (CNRS, IGBMC, Strasbourg), will present an IJM seminar on the theme: Transcription factor sensitivity to DNA methylation   Abstract: Multicellular organisms establish and maintain different transcriptional states in disparate cell types through complex and specific regulation of gene expression. This regulation is mediated by the cooperative binding of transcription factors to regulatory…

Invited by the Pintard, Arnaud Echard (Institut Pasteur) will present an IJM seminar on the theme: Cell division: the final cut   Abstract: We are interested in one of the most fundamental questions in biology: How a cell divides into two daughter cells. We particularly focus on cytokinesis, the last step of cell division leading to the physical…
