Registration is open for "The complex life of #RNA" 2026 @embl.org in Heidelberg! Excellent invited speakers and 30 short talks and even more flash talks selected from the abstracts!

We are looking for a postdoctoral fellow to work on induced proximity 🤜🤛 and functional genomics! Join our team in Toronto 🇨🇦 to tackle major challenges in oncology and neurodegeneration. www.nature.com/naturecareer...

We sequenced the oldest RNA (yet) ;-)

This room is called the room with the view.

Stepped out of my RNA comfort zone and attended the #EMBLEpitrans workshop. Great meeting and discussions!

Two group leader positions available in the broader areas of RNA science, RNA technologies, and RNA medicine. Attractive packages and a great environment. Come and join us at Helmholtz RNA Würzburg, Bavaria.

Smashing 9th RNA Salon Finland (fiRNA) meeting with transgenerational RNAs, strange RBPs, and prokaryotic RNA regulation. Discussion in the following RNA Saloon ranged from penguins to RNA switches @rnasociety.bsky.social #Lexogen.

📣 Don't miss this new Review! Interplay between RNA-protein interactions and RNA structures in gene regulation 🔓 buff.ly/pu6TpVa 🖊️ @rnaminni.bsky.social #RBPs #RNA #RNAbiology #RNAbindingproteins #RNAbinding #RNAstructure

The goal of student training in my lab is that each new student learns to isolate #RNA from difficult samples with RIN 10 😂. The latest student just 'graduated' from the RNA school 👏.

My lab @mpi-muenster.bsky.social is looking for a computational biologist with a passion for imaging and spatial biology. A staff scientist position with long-term perspective! Apply and spread the word 🙏 jobs.mpi-muenster.mpg.de/jobposting/0...

Happy to share our review on the Interplay between RNA-protein interactions and RNA structures. The open access article can be accessed here: doi.org/10.1002/2211...

Congratulations to Kai Simons, one of our founding directors, for receiving the Cothenius-Medal of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina @leopoldina.org for his insights into the function of cell membranes. 🎉 www.mpi-cbg.de/news-outreac...

Application for 2025/2026 RNA Salons is now open. Please apply by 31st August to receive support your local or regional RNA activities. @rnasociety.bsky.social #Lexogen www.rnasociety.org/salons

Looks like private funders, HHMI,CZI etc., are not going to “save” US research. Europe is setting up mechanisms to attract US researchers & it may work. But, common, target junior talent, don’t shower money on superstars who will be flying professors & return to US when the science winter passes.

Double the discovery, double the momentum 🚀 Europe doubles down on research competitiveness with a major boost to #HorizonEurope: €95.5 billion foreseen for 2021-2027 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰 €175 billion proposed for 2028-2034 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰

Hey blueskiers! We are looking for examples of "microRNAs" that you came across in your studies that seemed weird or behaving unexpectedly.

In the ever changing world, it is nice that some things do not change @karlaneugebauer.bsky.social. A nostalgic trip to Berlin and DD.

The IncaRNAto lab is seeking a motivated #PhD candidate, interested in studying #RNA structural ensemble dynamics in living cells. Here's the link to the vacancy: www.rug.nl/about-ug/wor.... Please share!

Karolinska is looking for 20 (!!) assistant professors and offering 6 year appointments with ~1M USD startup packages. ki.se/en/about-ki/...

I hope everyone scored a nice name badge and made new RNA friends tonight #RNA25. Safe travels and thanks for a fabulous meeting @rnasociety.bsky.social

Sad that #RNA2025 is almost over? Join us in August in the UK for another fun meeting on RNA! #RNAsky #RNAdecay

Some goodies from #RNA25.

Finally, sun decided to come out and compete with the dazzling science in San Diego #RNA2025 @rnasociety.bsky.social. Wonderful to catch up with RNA Salon organisers!

Hello out there! Are you looking for a friendly community to share your RNA research and hear about some cool RNA biology? Register for @trendrna.bsky.social on July 10-11 now! Oral abstract deadline is May 30th! Co sponsored by @rnacanada.bsky.social!

So exciting to see Victor Ambros @vambros.bsky.social & Gary Ruvkun named two of TIME's most influential health leaders! time.com/collections/... #RNA #RNATherapeutics

You guys, a conclave of old cardinals can decide on a POPE faster than an academic search committee can decide on the four people we're bringing to campus for an assistant professor search.

New work from Matti Turtola showing that mRNA poly(A) tail length is controlled by a kinetic ruler. A real pleasure to work with him! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Please join us for an exciting meeting on "Eukaryotic RNA turnover: from fundamentals to applications" in Brighton, UK this August! We have an exciting lineup of speakers, and will feature many selected talks. Abstract deadline is June 27! www.eventsforce.net/biochemsoc/f...

All Eurpean RNA Researchers: join us at the 2nd Polish RNA Biology Meeting @uam-ibmib.bsky.social,June 24-27 Poznan!

What drives cytoplasmic mRNA organization? We created unbiased, genome-wide maps of mesoscale RNA-RNA spatial proximity, revealing impact of encoded protein function. Fantastic work from @lindsayabecker.bsky.social @sofiquinodoz.bsky.social @davidaknowles.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Beautiful biochemistry, great bioinformatics, new methods and the birth of miRNAs!What more can you ask for an Salon meeting!The official fiRNA is now also followed by RNA Saloon 😉 @rnasociety.bsky.social #Lexogen #TampereUniversity

AlphaFold’s highly accurate structural models transformed protein biology. Nature reports on the efforts to create a similar system for RNA and why it’s a tougher nut to crack. #RNAsky 🧪

IMBA is recruiting a Junior Group Leader! Are you interested in starting your own lab, pursuing curiosity-driven basic research in the life sciences? Apply now to our group leader position. The deadline is May 28. Link is below.

Grateful to the Sigred Juselius foundation @sigridjuselius.bsky.social for their support of our research #RNA.

This is so destructive and idiotic. mRNA vaccines are one of the most exciting opportunities to tackle diseases - from infectious disease to cancer and beyond - and these morons want to shut it down.

Abstracts for poster sessions at the RNA Society meeting are due March 31st! This includes the first education session - see here for more! www2.rnasociety.org/conferences/... #RNASky #RNA2025 #RNA@PUI #RNASociety

Registration to the 8th RNA Salon Finland (fiRNA) is open. Come and join us in Tampere, we have an exciting program covering many corners of RNA research! @rnasociety.bsky.social #lexogen

The classic first day back in the office after a much needed vacation: trawling through hundreds of emails. How much email can one get in a week??? #academiclife
