EPIGENOME NOE

Europe has many world-leading laboratories in epigenetic research. Based on two diverse proposals, The Epigenome Network of Excellence (NoE) originally merged 25 research groups, plus 26 associate members and 12 NETs. This consortium has successfully negotiated within the Framework 6 Programme (FP6) of the European Union (EU) for a grant of 12.5 M to establish a coherent European Research Area (ERA) in epigenetic research during the next 5 years (2004-2009). Since then, additional NET and associate members have joined the network, which now consists of 81 research groups... To establish an open dialogue by building interactive websites for both the scientific community and general public... The Epigenome NoE promotes epigenetic and epigenome research in Europe through an internationally competitive network funded by the European Union Framework Programme 6
