RNA Biology club Berlin
RNA Club Berlin is a seminar series that includes RNA research groups in Berlin and provides opportunities to exchange expertise throughout the community. We are supported by the RNA Society and Lexogen.
We are happy to announce the continuation of the Berlin RNA club in 2023. The meetings will alternate between BIMSB/Mitte and MPI for Molecular Genetics/Dahlem and will also be accessible via zoom (hybrid format). We will continue with meetings every 2nd Wednesday of the month at 5 pm, starting January. If you want to join the RNA Club Berlin, please subscribe using the form at the bottom of this page. if you want to present your research, please contact us.
