#RNACanadaARN is thrilled that Victor Ambros was one of the presenters at last week's meeting in Ottawa!
He even gave @RNACanadaC2R2 a shout-out during the famed @NobelPrize phone call!
Listen to his comments at about 4 mins!

Check out our new method to shield nucleic acid drugs from degradation! Cyanuric acid transforms DNA/RNA into nuclease-resistant structures, boosting their serum lifetime to a month! Congrats @CLachanceBrais@SallyYao_Chihyu, Jath Asohan, all authors!

Very excited to share our paper out today in @naturemethods, introducing TREX (Targeted RNase H-mediated Extraction of X-linked RBPs), a novel approach to reveal proteins that bind to any region of any RNA molecule of interest in living cells🧪: https://t.co/rVU8X9W0ED (1/10)
Long non-coding RNAs comprise a large part of the genome, yet loss of one copy (haploinsufficiency) of a lncRNA is not known to cause a human disease. Read our preprint to learn how deletions of the lncRNA CHASERR cause a severe neurodevelopmental disorder.https://t.co/JgjDvIcwer
Most of our science PhD students will go on to careers that involve more than just science, and so we need to provide them experiences beyond just research.
A PhD should also be about learning communication, leadership, project management, and a whole set of professional skills.
Mango Beacons, based on the RNA Mango aptamer, fluoresce upon binding to a trigger RNA sequence. Multiple strategies for forming high contrast Mango Beacons are presented https://t.co/FjazWMPxTc

Dr. Sandy Wolin @NCISandraWolin is the current president of the RNA Society. Outside of the RNA Society, she is chief and senior investigator of the RNA Biology Laboratory, Center for Cancer Research, National Cancer Institute (NCI) in Fredrick, Maryland, USA. In addition, she is the head of the NCI RNA Biology Initiative and Professor Emeritus of Cell Biology at Yale University. In this month’s piece written by Dr. Luiz Passalacqua, Dr. Wolin shared what inspired her to pursue a career in science, how she overcame the challenges she came up with and her advice for starting graduate students.
Happy International RNA day! The RNA codon that initiates protein synthesis in cells written as AUG so we celebrate RNA day today - 1st AUGust #RNAday#AUG
1/10📢Thrilled to announce our new preprint! In this work, we describe a new method called TREX for unbiased discovery of proteins that directly bind to a given region of an RNA of interest. And all this is from living cells under endogenous settings! #RNA
