Dear Colleagues, 

This Topical Collection aims to collect high-quality papers on epigenetics and epigenomics. We encourage researchers and experts from various fields within the journal’s scope to contribute papers that highlight the latest developments in their research field. The potential topics of this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Functional epigenomic studies;
• Genome-wide epigenetic status and the regulation of cells or tissues;
• Chromatin modifications and remodeling in diseases;
• Epigenetics in physical diseases;
• Environmental changes in the epigenetic status of cells or tissues;
• The inheritance or fixation of epigenetic characteristics;
• The description of novel methods to study epigenetic regulation;
• Novel tools, protocols, and technologies for epigenetic studies and therapeutics;
• Long noncoding RNA (LncRNA), microRNA (miR), and chromatin crosstalk.
