​

A free one-day symposium at the Roslin Institute to bring together UoE scientists with a diverse range of interests in RNA biology. The programme will showcase the work of a number of groups from across the UoE campuses and from a wide spectrum of RNA biology-related perspectives.

​

The meeting comprises a series of talks, a poster session, and a keynote lecture.
