Description

Innovations in RNA biology and therapeutics show immense potential in transforming the landscape of medical research and biotechnology development. RNA, particularly messenger RNA (mRNA), has emerged as a groundbreaking tool and is revolutionizing the way researchers and clinicians approach medicine.

This year's symposium will explore the unprecedented possibilities of RNA innovations and its novel therapeutic avenues with guest speakers from Johns Hopkins University and Medicine, Maravai LifeSciences, Houston Methodist Hospital, CSL Seqirus, and Tevard Biosciences. Experts, researchers, and enthusiasts are invited to share knowledge, exchange ideas, and delve into the latest advancements so that the community's collective efforts advance the full potential of RNA-based technologies and shape the future of health care and biomedicine.

This symposium also includes a poster competition featuring research from the Institute for NanoBioTechnology (INBT), the Whiting School of Engineering, and more.

Registration is free but required to attend the lectures and compete in the poster competition. Deadlines to register are April 29 and May 5, respectively. The full agenda, speaker list, registration information, and more are available on INBT's website.
