Amazing splicing

Postdoc positions on nuclear RNA biology available in the Heick Jensen lab. Come join us in tiny Denmark. Interested? - then follow this link: mbg.au.dk/aktuelt/ledi...

Familiar faces! @jackiheraudfarlow.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We are pleased to announce registration for RNA 2025 - the 30th Annual Meeting of the RNA Society - is now open! www2.rnasociety.org This year’s meeting will be held at the beautiful Town and Country Resort & Convention Center in sunny San Diego, California, USA from May 27th - June 1st, 2025.

We're #hiring a #postdoc to join our lab 🧪 in Melbourne 🇦🇺🦘 in #StemCell and #Cancer #Epigenetics. Great opportunity to lead a research project within the broader vision of the lab, with plenty of scope to develop as an independent leader 👩‍🔬🔬 Apply by 27 Feb careers.petermac.org/job/MELBOURN...

More than 40 percent of #postdocs leave academia. Those who landed a coveted faculty position were more likely to have had a highly cited paper, changed their research topic between their #PhD and postdoc, or moved abroad after receiving their doctorate. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... @pnas.org

Look what I got! #nanopore #rna

fiRNA is back for 2025! No free seats as RNA enthusiast have filled the room to share and hear all about RNA. Thank you RNA Society and Lexogen for support.

The years in Australia taught me to like the very useful spiders, huntsman being my favourite. But look at the new Finnish names of our local spiders: hypykki, jokanopsakki, ristikki... yle.fi/a/74-20136816

Am I supposed to get something done today having submitted a major grant application (deadline today) that I worked on way past midnight last night and all through Christmas? #academiclife

I was reminded about the importance of green corridors in cities again today. We live ~2km from the city centre but our garden is frequented by deers, hares, squirrels, foxes and many birds, today a pheasant! All thanks to a green corridor connecting several parks to the forests nearby.

Why can a human tolerate a drug that globally inhibits transcription? Why do transcription inhibitors not cure cancer? Our first paper of 2025 may help explain (some) of this! So incredibly proud of @tobiaswilliams.bsky.social & Ewa Michalak who led the work! www.cell.com/molecular-ce...

Happy New Year!

Very important study to consider in light of the many miRNA cancer network and association studies out there!

We are looking for new group leaders. If RNA is your thing, and/or computational biology and you want to start your own group, check out these links. Feel free to contact me about these! And, please help me spread this. Thanks! www.imb.de/jobs/jobdeta... www.imb.de/jobs/jobdeta...

I am recruiting a postdoc with experience in Protein Biochemistry, Structural Biology & Chromatin Biology. If you are passionate about the complex world of chromatin modifications, please contact me for more details 🙏. Location: SAiGENCI, Adelaide, Australia 🦘🍷🏄🏖️🇦🇺

important cat news www.science.org/content/arti...

Published online today @jcellbiol.bsky.social you will find our latest work on Cajal bodies. 😅🎉 It has been a joy to work with Chuyue Zhang, Dahyana Arias Escayola, and colleagues! doi.org/10.1083/jcb.... #RNAsky #RNAbiology

We are happy to share the development of Co-transcriptional Structure Tracking by @leoschaerfen.bsky.social, which measures RNA structure formation during its synthesis in vivo. We are excited to discover the activity of helicases on nascent rRNA! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The winter came overnight! I spent an hour shovelling the driveway. #Finland

Check it out! The RNA Society 2025 Meeting Site is now live! Registration will open in January RNASociety Note the fabulous artwork by former EmoryBCDB student Dr. Carly Lancaster- make your plans now to join us in San Diego May 27-June 1, 2025

🔬🧫 🧬 Are you looking for an opportunity to set up your own laboratory focused on RNA or cell biology in an inspiring environment surrounded by like-minded researchers? The IIMCB in Warsaw is offering an excellent opportunity www.rnasociety.org/junior-group... www.iimcb.gov.pl/en/ #CellBiology #RNA

I have had my account here for a while but have managed do anything about it. Happy to find all the #RNA starter packs! Let's hope this feed stays more sciency than the other one...
