RNA, long overlooked in the research world, is having its moment. The pandemic provided the rocket fuel, because mRNA vaccines essentially saved our way of life. Talk of RNA-based treatments and trials is suddenly commonplace.

It's all the talk in medicine. After decades at the forefront of RNA discovery, Rochester researchers are helping to write the next chapter

Host John Foxe, PhD sits down with Lynne Maquat, PhD to explore groundbreaking research in mRNA decay and other topics

Eric J. Wagner, PhD at the University of Rochester, was elected a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

The 2024 New York RNA Symposium was held October 14-15 in the Finger Lakes region

Mitchell O’Connell, PhD, an associate professor and member of the UofR's Center for RNA Biology and CERRT Advisory Board, has been appointed as Dean’s Associate Professor.
