MCubed stimulates innovative research and scholarship by distributing real-time seed funding to multi-unit, faculty-led teams. Through this revolutionary research funding program, faculty from at least two different campus units can form a collaborative trio, or “cube,” and request either $60K or $15K to advance their idea right away. The projects below represent RNA-related science developed as…
How do you prove, in a laboratory setting studying objects in size just one-thousandth of the diameter of a hair, that something is doing what it is designed to do? The Walter Lab at the University of Michigan is doing just that, through single-molecule fluorescence imaging and tracking, and recently for a tiny nano engine…
Nico Gomez MSTP Fellow, Cellular and Molecular Biology Sami Barmada Lab Who/what brought you to science? I’ve been fascinated with nature for as long as I can remember. My curiosity for biological systems eventually turned inwards towards those that governed my behavior, thoughts, and emotions. My exposure to the medical field, in turn, reshaped these…
RNA Translated’s main focus is on “2020, the year of the RNA viruses,” with representative contributions from 10 RNA faculty members. We also feature our two Research Cores and broadly report on the Center’s activity with a few highlights. With this publication, we aim to showcase the outstanding achievements and deep impact of the scientific collaborations…
We are thrilled to announce that Mats Ljungman, Ph.D., Co-Director of the Center for RNA Biomedicine at the University of Michigan, has just been awarded a $3.7 million grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for the purpose of continuing his groundbreaking work with precision-targeting KLIPP cancer therapy – the project’s highest funding by…
Guoming Gao Biophysics Graduate Program, advisor: Nils G. Walter Google Scholar LinkedIn Twitter Who/what brought you to science? The Encyclopedia of Human Body, my favorite book when I was a kid. It showed me a fascinating world of cell biology where different human cells cooperate to achieve and maintain body functions.. What are your research…
