We look forward to once more host researchers from all over Ireland who share our interest in RNA! See you Friday!!
Only 2 more sleeps until our annual All-Ireland RNA club meeting! We can't wait to welcome to Irish RNA researcher community back to @maynoothuniversity.ie. @rnasociety.bsky.social #RNASalon @martinaschroeder.bsky.social @researchireland.ie

Finishing virology/biology PhD students, postdocs in need of a job- this is a lab you should join! Am I biased? 100% yes- because I know that the Sheppard lab will be an awesome place to work and you'll do great science. Spread the word!

Influenza A virus RNA localisation and the interceding trafficking pathways of the host cell
Viruses have evolved to efficiently navigate host cells to deliver, express, and replicate their genetic material. Understanding the mechanisms underlying viral RNA localisation is paramount to design...

The 2-part report found on virological.org is a very interesting read. Astonishing what can be discerned from the #H5N1 #birdflu sequence data. (Or astonishing to me, a non-scientist.)
