Conference: 2015 Rustbelt RNA Meeting to be held October 23-24, 2015 at the Sawmill Creek Resort and Conference Center in Huron/Sandusky, OH

该项目支持2015年锈带RNA会议，该会议将于2015年10月23日至24日在俄亥俄州休伦/桑达斯基举行。海报和口头报告的结合将促进有助于RNA研究的新研究和技术的分享，RNA是编码所有生物体信息的主要遗传物质形式之一。会议将汇集研究RNA结构和功能的生物学和化学方面的研究人员，提供跨学科的经验。会议的一大亮点是，早期职业科学家将有机会与RNA领域的当前领导者建立联系；这种互动往往是未来合作的基础。锈带RNA会议将以该领域领导者的主题演讲、海报和口头报告为特色。报告将涵盖的主题包括长链非编码RNA、tRNA修饰和RNA结构功能研究，并将包括用于研究RNA的各种计算、生物物理和细胞方法的讨论。本次会议以其对学生和博士后学者的关注而闻名，因为大约90%的研究将来自这些早期职业科学家群体。

This project supports the 2015 Rustbelt RNA Meeting , which will be held in Huron/Sandusky, OH on October 23-24, 2015. A combination of posters and oral presentations will promote sharing of new research and techniques that will aid the study of RNA, one of the main forms of genetic material that encodes information about all living organisms. The meeting will provide an interdisciplinary experience by bringing together researchers investigating biological and chemical aspects of RNA structure and function. A highlight of the meeting will be the opportunity for early-career scientists to network with current leaders in the RNA field; such interactions often serve as the foundation for future collaborations. The Rustbelt RNA Meeting will feature a keynote address by a leader in the field, posters, and oral presentations. Presentations will cover topics including long non-coding RNAs, tRNA modification, and RNA structure-function studies and will include discussion of various computational, biophysical, and cellular methods being used to study RNA. This conference is notable for its focus on inclusion of students and post-doctoral scholars, as approximately 90% of the research presented will come from these groups of early-career scientists.
