Very excited that our next All-Ireland RNA club meeting is coming closer: 6th of December in Queen's University Belfast π or online! Don't forget to register by the 25th of October and consider submitting an abstract (PhD students/Postdocs): go.qub.ac.uk/RNAclubAutumn2β¦ The RNA Society Lexogen #RNASalon

ππ€―For everybody interested in #lncRNAs, the latest GencodeGenes capture effort and resulting improved annotations are big news! Major increases in overall counts in human and mouse, better overlap with other collections and far higher human-mouse orthology rates




π¬π€¨I'm not surprised to hear this report on poor standard of living for Postdocs at University College Dublin. If Ireland wants to be scientifically competitive, we need to offer a decent and equitable quality of life to our young researchers Research Ireland nature.com/articles/d4158β¦
