Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman – awarded the 2023 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine – discovered that base-modified mRNA can be used to block activation of inflammatory reactions and increase protein production when mRNA is delivered to cells.

From the clean room to Frita Batidos, we have had a fantastic time welcoming our three rotation students Alyssa, Tiam, and Theo!

✨ We love a good crossover episode! @ShultzGroupCER ✨ Congratulations to Krista and the chemistry instructional coaching team for their recent publication in the Journal of Chemical Education! 🎉
