Abstract
DNA sequencing is not enough to grasp the complexity of genome organization and function. The four-dimensional (three in space, one in time) configuration of the eukaryotic nucleus varies with cell types, during development and in diseased tissues, and has to be taken into account to decipher genome function. To study, discuss, and advance in such direction, the International Nucleome Consortium COST Action, funded by the European Union, held its concluding symposium 'The Genome in Space and Time' at the Ionian University in Corfu, Greece, on September 10-13, 2023.
