@MartinjSimard @thomas_duchaine @NAR_Open @mflamand1 Thanks Martin! I’m sure you’ll like it 😁

[Vinay Mayya @vinnaymayya]

Overall, our paper provides new insight into the biological purposes of microRNAs in development and physiological contexts. We hope you like the paper!

[Vinay Mayya @vinnaymayya]

We then go on to show that GYF-1/IFE-4 represses mRNAs both in vivo and in vitro exclusively at the translational level, without mRNA deadenylation or decay.

Great talk from Elva, representing Duchaine lab, and the C.elegans community! @thomas_duchaine #TREnD2019

[TREnD @trendrna]

First talk of the afternoon is from Elva Vidya from the Duchaine lab at McGill! She's discussing her work on functional scaffolds of microRNA mediated mRNA decapping and decay in C. elegans!

@hilsawh @thomas_duchaine Can’t wait for #worm21

[Vinay Mayya @vinnaymayya]

@TarikaVR So do you! The beers helped ;)

[Vinay Mayya @vinnaymayya]

Oh absolutely, 3’UTRs are very cool!! Read our latest review paper to know more about it.

[Thomas Duchaine @thomas_duchaine]

3'UTRs are the coolest pieces of the genome and their function/dynamics/interactions/structure remain an important research space.(Congrats @vinnaymayya)

A beautiful remembrance of Elisa Izaurralde. "We mourn the passing of Elisa Izaurralde at the age of only 58, a pioneer and a powerhouse in the field of RNA biology." https://t.co/cS6moDz60d

[The RNA Society @RNASociety]

We're deeply saddened to announce the untimely passing of our friend and colleague Elisa Izaurralde, a cherished member of our Society, ditor of our journal, RNA, and Director of the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology in Tübingen. She will be greatly missed.

[Maxwell Shafer @maxwellshafer]

Finally rid of @mflamand1 ! Congratz! @hilsawh @thomas_duchaine @vinnaymayya @edlyn_MTL
