Dear all,
The 2017 SKMB Gene Regulation Workshop will take place on Wednesday September 6. As in previous years, we have a great lineup of speakers and attendance is free. However, YOU NEED TO REGISTER BY AUGUST 30 so that we can organize coffee and such. To do so, use the link below:

then click on “registration” on top of the page. CUSO students, log in. Everybody else, click on “not a CUSO doctoral student”.
Hope to see you for a great meeting.
Best
The organizers
