Abstract

Abstract : The 106th Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds International Titisee Conference, 'Reconstituting Chromatin: From Self‐assembly to Self‐organization', took place in October 2012. The organizers, Andrea Musacchio and Tom Muir, brought together biologists, chemists and physicists to discuss the principles of chromosome assembly and organization. Topics of discussion ranged from new insights gained from the static views provided by crystal structures to analyses of chromatin dynamics inside living cells.
