2025 National Cancer Institute RNA Biology Symposium

Thursday, April 3 to Friday, April 4, 2025 (register by March 21)

The goal of the NCI RNA Biology Initiative is to establish a collaborative environment that promotes the swift exchange of information and expertise regarding the structure, function, and biological significance of RNA. Our objective is to leverage this collective knowledge to advance the development of novel diagnostics and therapies. We actively foster synergistic collaborations among NCI and NIH intramural investigators, as well as between our researchers and the broader RNA community.

The symposium offers the opportunity to learn more about the current status of RNA biology in development and disease, share research, network with leading figures in the field and discuss the use and implications of these advances for clinical applications.

Organized by the NCI RNA Biology Initiative this symposium will bring together internationally renowned experts in the field of RNA biology, with the focus on:

RNA Processing
RNA Structure and Mechanism
Non-classical RNAs
RNA Therapy
