Integrative RNA Biology
Last week we had a terrific presentation by Dr. Kristopher Brannan, describing his recent first author paper on new technologies developed at Gene Yeo’s lab at UCSD for detecting RBP binding to RNA targets at single-cell resolution. The method Kris and his colleagues developed is called STAMP (“Surveying Targets by…
All the iRNA webinars from 2020, along with all other ISCB COSI webinars can be found (free of course!) in the following ISCBtv playlist – check it out! Reminder: If you want to directly go only to iRNA webinars you can simply follow the link below:
This year the iRNA got a concentration of abstracts on various aspects of RNA modifications (check out the schedule here). Indeed, epitranscriptomics is a 🔥 topic with many fundamental questions accompanied by both experimental and computational challenges. First, we organized a session to accommodate for the related talks. This then…
The APAeval hackathon was held during the 2021 RNA Society meeting (05/25/2021-06/05/21). APAeval’s aim is to benchmark 18 open-source, poly(A)-site-specific computational tools to provide users a basis for choosing the tools that best cater to their needs. The challenge is designed to be a collaborative effort of RNA biologists, bioinformaticians,…
The Welcome Genome Campus is organizing the RNA Informatics conference on September 9-11th. If you are in the field of computational RNA you should definitely check out the list of invited speakers and program. Note that the conference will be held in conjunction with the workshop on analysing non-coding RNA…
The COSI posts are intended to share information – updates, news, stories, views, etc. They can also serve as a base for discussion. Who can submit a post? basically anyone registered as a member of the community can share a post. A submitted post requires approval by a COSI moderator…
