RNA Club
The RNA Club hosts monthly meetings committed to exploring various facets of RNA, our favorite molecule. Organized by students and postdocs, these sessions feature presentations on ongoing research projects and are open to the entire Yale community.
The club aims to share scientific knowledge and discoveries with everyone, from undergraduates to PIs. The goal is to broaden horizons through discussions and new connections.
Meetings occur every second Tuesday of the month, switching between Science Hill and the Yale School of Medicine. The agenda includes a casual breakfast and two straightforward 25-minute talks from trainees in different RNA labs. A Q&A session wraps up each talk.
Since the Fall of 2020, the RNA Club has been coordinated by Dr. Giulia Biancon (Halene lab) and Dr. Diana Martínez-Saucedo (Escobar-Hoyos lab), with Ethan Strayer (Giraldez lab) joining from January 2023 onwards. Before this, Liana Boraas coordinated from 2018 to 2020. Together, they have steered the RNA Club on a journey of scientific discovery, uniting minds and fostering a thriving community of RNA enthusiasts.
