The fundamental unit of chromatin, the nucleosome, consists of ~147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around a histone octamer composed of H2A, H2B, H3, and H4. These nucleosomes are connected by linker DNA, forming a “beads-on-a-string” structure that enables efficient packaging of the genome.<br>\r\nBeyond structural compaction, nucleosomes play a central role in regulating genome function. They can restrict access to DNA and act as barriers to essential processes such as transcription, replication, and repair. At the same time, nucleosomes serve as key epigenetic platforms, where histone modifications and histone variants modulate chromatin structure and dynamics to control gene activity.<br>\r\nTo better understand these regulatory mechanisms, we employ biochemical and structural approaches to investigate nucleosome structure and dynamics. Our studies aim to elucidate how structural transitions of nucleosomes influence DNA accessibility and ultimately govern genomic regulation. I will present our recent structural and biochemical insights and discuss their implications for understanding nucleosome-mediated genome regulation.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Bio:</strong><br>\r\nHitoshi Kurumizaka is a Professor at the Institute for Quantitative Biosciences, The University of Tokyo, Japan. After receiving his Ph.D. degree in 1995, he started his postdoctoral training at NIH in the USA, in the laboratory of Molecular Embryology (Alan Wolffe Lab), where he began chromatin research. In 1997, he joined RIKEN as a Research Scientist. He subsequently moved to Waseda University, where he served as Associate Professor and later as Professor of Molecular and Structural Biology. Since 2018, he has been Professor at the Institute for Quantitative Biosciences, The University of Tokyo. His research focuses on the structural basis of chromatin and epigenetic regulation in eukaryotic genomes. In 2020, he established an in-house cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) platform to advance high-resolution structural studies of chromatin and genome-associated protein complexes. Professor Kurumizaka has made significant contributions to the field of chromatin biology through structural and mechanistic studies of nucleosomes and genome-associated protein complexes. His work has been published in leading international journals and has substantially advanced our understanding of chromatin architecture and epigenetic regulation.<br>\r\n ", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-03-19T22:57:43", "last_modification_date": "2026-04-01T14:33:48", "link_label": "Kurumizaka lab", "link_url": "https://www.iqb.u-tokyo.ac.jp/en/lab/kurumizaka/", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/64667340373", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "", "organizer": "Prof. Nicolas Thomä", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "Chromatin, Structural Biology, Cryo-EM, DNA, Transcription", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120129/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/111/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/26/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/27/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71258, "title": "SUPER SANDWICH SEMINAR", "slug": "super-sandwich-seminar-365", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/super-sandwich-seminar-365", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32616/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32616/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32616/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-04-23", "end_date": "2026-04-23", "start_time": "12:00:00", "end_time": "13:00:00", "description": "<p>Triple S (Super Sandwich Seminar) will feature 3 speakers per week, each presenting for 15 minutes, followed by a 5 minutes Q&A session.</p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-02-26T17:14:55", "last_modification_date": "2026-02-26T17:16:15", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Flor Cecilia Navarro Negredo, <em>Radtke Lab; </em>Juliane Da Graca -<em> D'Angelo Lab; free slot</em>", "organizer": "Prof. Pierre Gönczy", "contact": "Lisa Smith, ISREC Administrative Assistant", "is_internal": "True", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "Super Sandwich, cancer", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/119911/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/26/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 70990, "title": "\"Mapping the Human Body One Cell at a Time.\"", "slug": "mapping-the-human-body-one-cell-at-a-time", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/mapping-the-human-body-one-cell-at-a-time", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32376/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32376/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32376/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-04-30", "end_date": "2026-04-30", "start_time": "12:15:00", "end_time": "13:15:00", "description": "<strong>A Lola and John Grace Distinguished Lecture in Cancer Research</strong>\r\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-98cefd8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\">\r\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><br>\r\nSarah Teichmann completed her PhD at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, UK, and was a Beit Memorial Fellow at University College London.

Dyson Professor of Pediatric Oncology at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, a Professor of Cell Biology at Harvard Medical School, an Investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, and the Associate Director for Basic Science at the Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center. He received his undergraduate and medical degrees from the University of Chicago. During medical school, he did research at the Rockefeller University. His postdoctoral fellowship was at the Whitehead Institute/Massachusetts Institute of Technology.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe Pellman Lab works on the mechanism of cell division and how certain cell division errors drive rapid genome evolution. His research has contributed to the understanding of cell division, the origin of cell division errors in cancer, how cell division errors drive genetic instability and the mechanisms driving rapid evolution of cancer genomes. Our contributions include (1) the co-discovery of formin-dependent actin nucleation and a mechanism for spindle positioning during asymmetric cell division, (2) discoveries establishing that whole genome duplication can drive tumorigenesis, alter cell physiology, and accelerate evolutionary adaptation, and (3) the discovery of a mechanism explaining chromothripsis, a mutational process that generates rapid karyotype evolution in cancer and congenital disease.</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e552a16 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\">\r\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"> </div>\r\n</div>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-01-06T16:10:28", "last_modification_date": "2026-01-28T14:34:52", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/97039045251?pwd=WDFjUGV3Y1FxeG9rTUIrOGpiUXhLQT09", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "David Pellman, M.D., Margaret M.
