Welcome

You are cordially invited to the EMBO Workshop on Chromosome Segregation and Aneuploidy, to be held on June 22-26, 2013, on the estate of Nyenrode Castle in Breukelen, The Netherlands.

The workshop aims to bring together researchers from around the world that wish to understand the mechanisms of chromosome segregation and the consequences of errors in this process for development and diseases such as cancer.

The sessions of the Workshop discuss the various molecular mechanisms of cell division, and their malfunction, in both somatic cells and in meiotic systems, and have a strong focus on understanding the contribution of aneuploidy to tumorigenesis.

Traditionally the meeting has brought together top scientists from the fields of basic mitosis and meiosis research as well as leading mutagenesis and cancer scientists.

Abstract submission and its acceptance by the selection committee is a prerequisite for the Workshop attendance. 

We hope to welcome you in Breukelen in 2013! 

Your hosts,

Geert Kops and Susanne Lens
