Conference Description

The RNA Editing GRS provides a unique forum for young doctoral and post-doctoral researchers to present their work, discuss new methods, cutting edge ideas, and pre-published data, as well as to build collaborative relationships with their peers. Experienced mentors and trainee moderators will facilitate active participation in scientific discussion to allow all attendees to be engaged participants rather than spectators.

The 2025 GRS will be focused on novel findings and cutting-edge technologies regarding RNA modifications and editing. Pivotal biological discoveries within the vast landscape of the epitranscriptome are paralleled by the crucial methodologies developed to reveal these insights. The GRS will include two poster sessions providing an opportunity for all attendees and trainees to present and discuss results, as well as oral talks selected from submitted abstracts. The GRS will conclude with a panel discussion titled “Strategies for Scientific Writing” aimed at providing a platform for discussing the process of scientific writing with professionals working in diverse careers. The synergistic arrangement of the GRS and GRC will provide multiple opportunities for trainees to build professional networks and foster collaborations.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "RNA Editing" Gordon Research Conference (GRC). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRC in addition to an application for the GRS. Refer to the associated GRC program page for more information.
