*********

COVID-19: It is with considerable regret that we announce the cancellation of the upcoming CSHL meeting on Systems Biology: Global Regulation of Gene Expression because of ongoing concerns about the coronavirus outbreak. In an effort to prioritize our participants’ health while still promoting scientific exchange, we are hosting a virtual meeting, including oral sessions via Zoom and digital "poster sessions", in it's place. Please check your email for updates regarding the virtual meeting, refunds, and other important details.

We will continue to closely monitor the COVID-19 situation as it evolves, following CDC guidelines to ensure the safety and well-being of our participants and staff. Full advisory 

*********

The fourteenth Cold Spring Harbor conference on Systems Biology: Global Regulation of Gene Expression will take place virtually on Wednesday, March 11 through Friday, March 13, 2020.

The conference is intended to foster cross-disciplinary exchange of ideas and expertise between experimentalists and computational biologists interested in the organization and control of complex transcription networks in eukaryotes. While a number of speakers have been invited, please note that the majority of oral presentations have been drawn from openly submitted abstracts.
