International Conference on Epigenetics and Bioengineering | AIChE

Presented by the Society of Biological Engineering (SBE),  EpiBio 2017 is a forum for engineers and scientists who are applying the tools and techniques of bioengineering to the area of epigenetics. Academic, clinical, and industrial researchers from several disciplines are invited to share their recent discoveries and developments, and the overarching goal of the conference is to shape the future of this emerging field.
