At the University of Michigan, impactful projects across all three campuses and Michigan Medicine are funded each year thanks to the generosity of the U-M community on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. 

With a donation to the Center for RNA Biomedicine, you can support and advance the RNA research and its scientific community. The center is actively seeking support for fellowships, events, and facility equipment. Learn more.

Turn the dream of so many individuals stricken with rare genetic diseases and cancer become a reality. Give Online Today!

Please consider joining in and helping these efforts reach their goals by making a gift on Nov. 28.
