We are excited to join National Academies for a webinar on 3/21 that discusses a new report on sequencing RNA and its modifications, laying the foundation for a new era in biology and medicine. RSVP: events.nationalacademies.org/42184_03-2024_…

We are looking for a postdoc to join us Johns Hopkins Medicine in beautiful (yes!) Baltimore, MD. Help us investigate the role of RNA and RNA/DNA secondary structures in DNA repair. Several CRISPR screen hits are waiting for follow-up analysis. Please RT! oberdoerfferp.wixsite.com/po-lab/positio…

Check out our CRISPR genome-scale exon perturbation study Molecular Cell. We identified exons influencing cell fitness and uncovered a novel mechanism by which #splicing affects #transcription. Michael Aregger Arun Prasath Damodaran Meisheng @NCIResearchCtr NIH doi.org/10.1016/j.molc…


A new NIAMS-led paper, published today in Molecular Cell, provides substantial insights into the role of RNA structures in posttranscriptional gene regulation. Read the abstract: cell.com/molecular-cell… #NIAMSIntramural







What happens at a piRNA meeting … can turn into a wonderful commentary written by friends (who loooooooove piRNAs) for friends (who are curious about piRNAs …). Thank you to Pei-Hsuan (Xuan) Wu @ketting_rene Petr Svoboda @VaRijLab Alexei Aravin ZamoreLabUMass and others!

Congratulations Markus Hafner and team!

#RNACanadaARN is thrilled that Victor Ambros was one of the presenters at last week's meeting in Ottawa! He even gave RNA Canada|Canadian Consortium of RNA Researchers a shout-out during the famed The Nobel Prize phone call! Listen to his comments at about 4 mins! youtube.com/watch?v=3BBU2Q…

Excellent talk by Zuzana Loubalova (Astrid Haase Lab) showing substantial fraction of mammalian piRNAs derive from 3’ extension of adjacent gene transcription. #cshlTE24 Many more interesting findings here: cell.com/cell-reports/f…
