We are pleased to announce the establishment of the Kansai RNA Club as a platform for interaction among RNA researchers in the Kansai area. To mark this occasion, we are holding our first meeting on August 18th (Friday) at the Icho Hall on the Suita Campus of Osaka University. Our keynote speakers are Professor Masatoshi Hagiwara and Professor Hirohide Saito from Kyoto University. In addition, we have scheduled presentations from young and mid-career researchers in RNA-related laboratories in the Kansai area, covering a wide range of fields from basic research to drug discovery and disease research. The event is open to everyone, not just those in the Kansai area. We look forward to your participation.
