Biology Masterclass: Unlocking the Secrets of the Dark Genome & Revealing Mechanism of Action to Uncover Role in Disease
Time: 9:01 am
day: Pre-Conference Workshop Day
Details:
As the role of the dark genome in regulation and disease increasingly comes to light, further in-depth understanding to gain deeper insights into its role in health and disease is critical to aid novel target discovery and validation, mitigate safety concerns, and advance the development of effective therapeutics.
This Workshop will Deep-Dive and Discuss:
- Decoding the composition of the dark genome to map out regulatory elements, retroviruses, and disease-specific antigens
- Analyzing the transcriptome to gain an in-depth understanding of the functional role of RNA in diseases
- Correlating non-coding sequences to protein level changes to decode protein structure function and aberrations in disease
- Understanding the role of epigenetic modifications on dark genome expression to shed light on altered regulatory mechanisms
