Description
The goal of this mini-course is to learn cutting-edge RNA biology within a historical context. This course will focus on recent research in RNA biology: differential RNA processing and stability (splicing, polyadenylation, and turnover), the functional significance of various classes of non-coding RNAs (microRNAs, lncRNAs, cRNAs, ceRNAs, eRNAs, etc…), the CRISPR/Cas9 system, and RNA
