Chromatin 'Readers' as Molecular Architects in Shaping Metabolic Landscape

Explore a 24-minute conference talk on chromatin 'readers' and their role in shaping metabolic landscapes. Delve into the interdisciplinary aspects of chromatin organization and gene regulation presented by Chandrima Das at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Learn how chromatin, a long polymer containing the genetic code, is intricately arranged in 4D (space and time) and how epigenetic states and 3D organization dictate gene regulation. Discover recent advances in genomics, high-resolution microscopy, and single-cell measurements that have enhanced our understanding of chromatin's complex organization. Gain insights into the multi-disciplinary approach required to integrate diverse information and understand the underlying principles of chromatin organization and gene regulation. This talk is part of a larger program featuring a pedagogical workshop and scientific meeting, bringing together experts from various fields to discuss novel experimental observations, phenomenology, physical principles, and data-driven methods in chromatin research.
