This symposium is organized to honor the scientific contributions of Thomas Kunkel, Ph.D., an NIH Distinguished Investigator, to the fields of DNA replication and repair. The symposium will focus on current advances in the studies of processes that control DNA synthesis and repair in order to preserve cell viability and genome stability, and how they can be perturbed by environmental stress to lead to human disease.
The meeting will bring together, in an informal atmosphere, junior and senior investigators, including previous postdocs from the Kunkel lab, postdoctoral fellows and graduate students from the local universities and the NIEHS, as well as distinguished scientists from institutions outside North Carolina. The day and a half-long symposium will provide a forum for ample discussions, networking, and for fostering new collaborations.
