34th Ernst Klenk Symposium in Molecular Medicine

Klenk Symposium 2018 - Poster Presentation and Poster Awards

During the poster presentation over 80 posters were presented

  • Research Area A: Nuclear architecture and chromatin remodeling (Poster A01 - A 13)
  • Research Area B: Phase separation in transcriptional regulation (Poster B01)
  • Research Area C: Transcriptional and posttranscriptional control (Poster C01 - C26)
  • Research Area D: Epigenetic strategies for therapeutic intervention (Poster D01 - D17)
  • Research Area E: Regulation of development and disease (Poster E01 - E30)

The poster track is intended as a forum that provides an opportunity for the authors to present original research results and to promote scientific interaction. Many thanks to all participants for their poster contribution to share their novel and exciting ongoing state-of-the-art research with all participants.

VBiO supports Klenk Poster Awards 2018

We are honored to announce that the organisation "Verband Biologie, Biowissenschaften und Biomedizin (VBio)" contributes to the Klenk Poster Awards 2018.

VBIO is Germany’s largest association for life sciences. It combines about 35 000 members which represent individual members, life science organisations, companies and other institutions. VBIO aims to be a strong, unifying voice for scientists, teachers, schools, universities, industries, administrations, research institutions and free-lancers.
