It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2025 International Symposium on Frontiers in 3D Genomics, to be held this November at KAIST in Daejeon, South Korea. Since its inception in 2018 at KAIST, our symposium has served as a vibrant platform for the Korean scientific community to explore the latest advances in 3D genomics and nuclear architecture. For the past several years, the meeting has been held annually in Busan as an in-person and monthly scientific webinar domestic event. This year marks an exciting transition as we expand to an international format, with the goal of fostering broader collaboration and strengthening global networks in this rapidly evolving field.


The 2025 symposium will cover a wide range of cutting-edge topics, including mechanogenomics, disease-specific 3D gene regulation, and emerging technologies such as single-cell 3D omics and MERFISH. In addition to a rich scientific program featuring leading researchers from around the world, we have designed this year’s event to emphasize interaction and community building. We warmly invite participants to join our networking sessions during poster presentations and to attend the multiple networking dinners we have planned. These informal gatherings will offer valuable opportunities to connect, exchange ideas, and spark new collaborations.


Please note that the number of participants will be limited to 300 due to venue capacity. We encourage you to register as early as possible to ensure your place at the symposium. November is also a particularly beautiful time to visit Daejeon, with colorful autumn scenery and a chance to enjoy the city’s unique charm and local cuisine.


We are truly looking forward to hosting you at KAIST and to sharing an inspiring and engaging experience together.
