Living in Boulder, Colorado one can’t help but be an RNA fan. What with the Nobel Prize winning work of Tom Cech for his co-discovery of the catalytic properties of RNA, to the work being done at Sirna where RNAi technology is being used to develop a new class of therapeutics targeting human disease, to Steve Scaringe of Dharmacon for developing and commercializing a new technology for RNA oligonucleotide synthesis (2’-ACE RNA chemistry). There is no doubt…Boulder is an RNA crazy town.
With RNA on the mind I came across an interesting webcast on bio.com titled Advances in Vector-based RNAi. You will have to register with bio.com to either listen to or read the .pdf transcript but it is free and takes all of sixty-seconds. If you dig RNA you’ll dig this webcast.
