来自美国，加拿大和英国的蠕虫生物学家于2019年4月3日至5日聚集在墨西哥南下加利福尼亚州的科罗拉多州立大学托多斯桑托斯中心参加托多斯桑托斯小RNA研讨会。与会者中的许多人仍在从几天前袭击北美大片地区的炸弹气旋中恢复过来，迎接他们的是温暖和阳光，这在沉睡的海滨小镇托多斯桑托斯几乎无处不在。只有24位发言者，会议有一种悠闲的气氛，你可能会期望在墨西哥太平洋海岸的棕榈树和海风之间。会议首先追溯了与会者的实验室血统。毫不奇怪，参加会议的最常见的父母血统是克雷格·梅洛博士、加里·鲁夫昆博士和维克托·安布罗斯博士，他们与安迪·法尔博士和大卫·鲍尔科姆博士一起开创了小RNA领域。具有可悲讽刺意味的是，在会议闭幕当天，与会者听到了西德尼·布伦纳博士去世的消息。通过建立线虫，秀丽隐杆线虫，作为一个模型系统，布伦纳博士为这里讨论的大部分研究铺平了道路。
Worm biologists from the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom gathered at the Colorado State University Todos Santos Center in Baja California Sur, Mexico, April 3–5, 2019 for the Todos Santos Small RNA Symposium. Meeting participants, many of whom were still recovering from the bomb cyclone that struck a large swath of North America just days earlier, were greeted by the warmth and sunshine that is nearly ubiquitous in the sleepy seaside town of Todos Santos. With only 24 speakers, the meeting had the sort of laid-back vibe you might expect amongst the palm trees and ocean breeze of the Pacific coast of Mexico. The meeting started with tracing the laboratory lineages of participants. Not surprisingly, the most common parental lineages represented at the meeting were Dr. Craig Mello, Dr. Gary Ruvkun, and Dr. Victor Ambros, whom, together with Dr. Andy Fire and Dr. David Baulcombe, pioneered the small RNA field. In sad irony, on the closing day of the meeting, participants were met with the news of Dr. Sydney Brenner’s passing. By establishing the worm,Caenorhabditis elegans, as a model system Dr. Brenner paved the way for much of the research discussed here.
