HILLDALE LECTURE IN THE BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES IN 2019-2020
Professor Patrick Cramer
Department of Molecular Biology, Director
Max Planck Institute of Biophysical Chemistry
Transcription of the eukaryote genome: mechanisms and regulatory strategies
Thursday, January 23, 2020
3:30 pm.
Lecture takes place at the Ebling Symposium Center, Microbial Sciences Building
Reception to follow
Dr. Cramer is a world-renowned leader in the study of transcriptional regulation including both state-of-the-art cryo-electron microscopy to understand the structural basis of eukaryotic transcription and its regulation and new genome-scale, high-throughout sequencing methods to measure gene expression and regulation. Dr. Cramer’s research has been and remains at the forefront of understanding how gene expression is programmed and regulated. His Hilldale Lecture will be for a general scientific audience and will provide an outstanding opportunity for all in the UW-Madison community who would like to learn where the science of gene regulation stands today.
