RNAML: RNA mailing list edit

  • Interested parties can sign up to the mailing list here and add their name to the list below.
  • We meet every second Thursday in room F301 at 14:00.
  • After an extensive democratic process it has been decided that preferred articles are short (ie. <4 pages) and contain original research (ie. review articles are not recommended). Try to aim for things like Nature "Letters" or Science "Reports", at least in the sense of relevance and length. Presenting your original research is also highly encouraged!

Volunteers - the next speaker is at the top of the list edit

  • Sergei Manakov (March 4)
  • Anton Enright (March 18)
  • Paul Gardner (April's fool)
  • Harpreet Saini
  • Stijn van Dongen
  • Jose Afonso Guerra Assuncao
  • Cei Abreu-Goodger
  • Albert Vilella
