The Center for RNA Biomedicine produces an annual magazine and report, RNA Translated.

March 21, 2025. ANN ARBOR, Mich. The Center for RNA Biomedicine at the University of Michigan is pleased to announce the print and online publication of our latest issue of RNA Translated.

The 2025 issue focuses on on the vital role of cross-disciplinary collaboration, bringing together foundational researchers, clinicians and administrators, and supportive centers, institutes and initiatives at the U-M, to unlock mysteries in RNA biology and realize the full potential of RNA therapeutics.

Through exemplary stories of success, we explore breakthroughs ranging from the harnessing of microRNAs in cancer to the role of stress granules in neurodegenerative diseases, single-cell spatial transcriptomics and synergistic small-molecule drug discovery efforts across a range of pathologies.

The last section of the magazine features the main activities of the center for the 2024 calendar year, along with information on how to participate in supporting our mission.

Feel the power, of collaborative RNA science!

March 8, 2024. ANN ARBOR, Mich. The Center for RNA Biomedicine at the University of Michigan is pleased to announce the publication of our latest issue of RNA Translated.

The 2024 issue focuses on our M-RNA Therapeutics Initiative, the scientists at the forefront of RNA research, and the groundbreaking efforts to build a bench-to-bedside pipeline to discover, design, and deliver RNA-based and RNA-targeting therapeutic medicines to treat myriad rare and genetic diseases and conditions.

M-RNA Therapeutics: Changing tomorrow’s world of medicine, today.


In 2020, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, we focused our publication on RNA viruses. With the success of the mRNA vaccines against COVID-19 and the 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry about CRISPR, our 2021 issue of RNA Translated looks into three major aspects of RNA therapeutics: mRNA vaccines, ASOs and CRISPR. With this publication we also wish to further support and promote RNA therapeutics research at the U-M.
