The IPSEN Foundation, Nature Structural & Molecular Biology and Nature Immunology are pleased to announce the first Emergence & Convergence mini-symposium, which will focus on small RNAs in development, immunology and cancer, on 3 October 2007 at the New York Academy of Sciences, New York.
The mini-symposium will address what we know and what we have yet to understand about the molecular intricacies of the processing and production of these small non-coding RNAs, as well as the mechanistic basis underlying their physiological functions.
Speakers at this one-day meeting work in a broad array of scientific fields but share a common interest in small RNAs. The aim is to facilitate discussion and collaboration among diverse scientific disciplines to further our understanding of the function of these enigmatic RNAs.
