We’re looking for postdocs to explore RNA dynamics in biologically relevant conditions in an international and genuinely curious research team. If you’re interested in RNA changing its shape to perform its function (even inside a living cell), we'd love to hear from you. Details: petzoldlab.com

We are recruiting a PhD student 🥼🙋 Topic: how germ cells bend gene expression dogmas Fly genetics + proteomics + genomics. Fully funded. Aarhus University 🇩🇰 info on the project and how to apply👇 mbg.au.dk/en/peter-and... I'd really appreciate it if you'd help spread the word. Thanks
Early morning train ride through the Finnish country side. Clearly heading towards colder times.

Excited! On my way to Dresden for the @mpi-cbg.de 25 year anniversary. Looking forward to reconnecting with many science friends and visiting the old home town.
With direct RNA sequencing and frontier AI models, we now have the tools to start moving beyond the genome and dive into the mysterious world of RNA biology, deciphering its secrets and discovering new ways to engineer better therapies and molecular computing systems.
Happy to have contributed to this great paper. Have a look, SRSF3 plays a role!
We set out to map what #RNA binds to immune receptor #MDA5 during #virus infection. Our findings were unexpected: rather than viral, it was host RNA! Excited (translate: frankly, knackered) to share our paper in @natureportfolio.nature.com Nature Immunology! 🔗 www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧵👇

Robust mammalian RNA localization elements are complex and multipartite
The subcellular localization patterns of RNAs are controlled by regulatory elements contained within them. However, for most localized RNAs, the identities of these elements remain unknown. We had pre...

Having a sensory overload after two stimulating days #nanoporeconf. In addition to dazzling science, were even spoiled with sunshine in London.
Excited to highlight the new Special Issue of RNA showcasing advances in system-level RNA biology, from epitranscriptomics and RNA damage to deep learning–driven structure prediction and beyond #RNAbiology #Epitranscriptomics #RNAseq #ComputationalBiology #Genomics bit.ly/4tEQL9I
Happy to have contributed to a review by a talented PhD student Ajai in the Kaslin lab. Read about RNA signalling in cellular plasticity. Is there anything #RNA cannot do? kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F...

#RNAConfluence was a blast, great talks and posters by junior RNA scientists. Organised by scientists to scientists and inspired by the RNA Salon initiative @rnasociety.bsky.social . I am proud to coordinate this program supporting local RNA focused evens.
I am very happy to be invited to be a part of the #RNAconfluence, the first 'super' RNA Salon bringing together RNA enthusiasts within the Rhine-Main-Neckar region in Germany. I look forward to an exciting day of RNA science and many RNA interactions. @rnasociety.bsky.social
