CLP-Lurie Cancer Center Convergence Workshop: Cancer Genomics and Redox Epigenetics
Join us for the CLP-Lurie Cancer Center Convergence Workshop on June 29, 2023, to learn about some of Northwestern’s most innovative cancer epigenetics research and methods and opportunities for collaboration. The program will cover cutting-edge physical sciences approaches and technologies developed by CLP faculty and clinically relevant cancer models, mechanisms, and targets identified by Lurie Cancer Center researchers.
The program will take place online from 3:30 – 5:00 p.m., followed by dinner at Maggiano’s Little Italy, 516 N Clark, Chicago, at 7:30 p.m. Although the program is free, registration is required. We gratefully acknowledge the generous support for this program from The Deitcher Family Foundation.
