The 46th Annual International Asilomar Chromatin, Chromosomes and Epigenetics Conference will be held December 12 – 15, 2024.
We are excited to announce the 46th Annual International Asilomar Chromatin, Chromosomes, and Epigenetics Conference (a.k.a. the West Coast Chromatin and Chromosomes Meeting) will happen in-person at the Asilomar Conference Center in the spectacular Monterey Bay Area. The conference continues to provide a unique international forum for scientists at all levels to freely exchange new and exciting results. We particularly value fostering the development of young scientists-in-training by encouraging them to speak at the meeting, and we support building a conference that reflects the diversity of the chromatin field.
