Please contact <a href=\"mailto: diah.yulianti@embl.de\">Diah Yulianti<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This conference will take place at EMBL Heidelberg, with the option to attend virtually. Participants will be requested to show a proof of a negative COVID-19 from a supervised, negative antigen \/ PCR COVID-19 test, not older than 24 h for antigen and 48 h for PCR tests upon arrival at the venue on the first day only.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Symposium overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the genetic information stored in DNA can be used to direct cell growth and metabolism, it has to be transferred into RNA. Messenger RNAs (mRNAs) that code for proteins and noncoding RNAs are key components in the transmission of genetic information in all life forms &#8211; from viruses to complex mammalian organisms. Exciting recent findings now reveal a new layer of information added to RNAs in the form of chemical marks (the epitranscriptome) that play a critical role in gene expression control. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the great success of the virtual 2020 edition of this long-standing symposium, we are looking forward to returning to an in-person meeting for 2022, bringing together leaders in the RNA field, post-docs and students, with the aim of disseminating and discussing the most recent results. The programme will include, among others, sessions on transcription, RNA processing and modification, mRNA export and localisation, mRNA surveillance and decay, translation and the control of mRNA expression by microRNAs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Session topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Co-transcriptional events<\/li><li>RNA processing and modification<\/li><li>RNA transport and localisation<\/li><li>RNA surveillance and decay<\/li><li>Translation<\/li><li>mRNA regulation<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What past participants say about the symposium<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;The Complex Life of RNA is the key event in RNA biology. It is incredibly difficult to represent this complex area of knowledge, but the organisers succeeded in decomposing the complexity!&#8221; &#8211;&nbsp;<\/em>Alexey Moskovtsev, Institute of General Pathology and Pathophysiology, Moscow, Russia<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;Mind blowing science fresh from the bench and presented by top experts &#8211; a truly rewarding experience!&#8221;&nbsp;<\/em>&#8211; Peer Staehler, BASF New Business GmbH, Germany<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cWhile I was at The Complex Life RNA symposium held at EMBL, I was able to present my work as a poster to several researchers. One such researcher from Norway got interested in my work and offered to host me for a short term in his lab to enhance my current project. After several correspondences, I was able to design a project that could also potentially start a collaboration between my home lab in India and his lab in Norway. I applied for the EMBO-STF fellowship and I was successful in securing this grant for my visit to Norway. So, I believe, attending this conference was a great boost for my scientific career.\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;&#8211; Preeti Kute, Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine,

However, those exact genetic changes which lead to faster cell growth can also represent potential targets for molecular therapies. Unfortunately, for many cancer types, the identification of such genes has proven largely unsuccessful. In this light, it may be time to \u201cthink outside of the box\u201d when it comes identifying potential novel therapeutic targets. Over the last number of years, it has become clear that mammalian protein-coding genomes are incomplete. Recently, challenges to traditional criteria governing protein annotation have identified thousands of novel protein coding non-canonical open reading frames (ncORFs) which have proven to be essential for a number of critical cellular processes ranging from immunology to cellular survival. Our research aims to explore unchartered genetic areas by comprehensively characterising the ncORFs which are indispensable for the survival of non-transformed and cancer cells. By combining ribosome profiling with loss of function CRISPR-Cas9 screening, we have the ability to define and characterise the complete protein coding capacity of the human genome in an unbiased manner. The emerging field of novel ncORF-encoded proteins has the potential to herald a new chapter in cancer research. The unbiased identification of a completely new database of functional proteins may potentially uncover missing pieces to currently unanswerable molecular questions in cancer biology.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\"><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","embl_taxonomy":[],"class_list":["post-8384","vf_event","type-vf_event","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"embl_taxonomy_terms":[],"vf_event_start_date":{"value":"20221012","formatted":"12 October 2022"},"vf_event_end_date":{"value":"20221015","formatted":"15 October 2022"},"vf_event_submission_opening":{"value":"","formatted":""},"vf_event_submission_closing":{"value":"20220720","formatted":"20 Jul 2022"},"vf_event_registration_opening":{"value":"","formatted":""},"vf_event_registration_closing":{"value":"20221005","formatted":"5 Oct 2022"},"vf_event_summary":{"value":"","formatted":""},"vf_event_additional_info":{"value":"","formatted":""},"vf_event_registration_fee":{"value":"","formatted":""},"vf_event_canceled":{"value":"no","formatted":"no"},"vf_event_venue":{"value":"EMBL Advanced Training Centre","formatted":"EMBL Advanced Training Centre"},"vf_event_unique_identifier":{"value":"","formatted":""},"vf_event_event_type":{"value":"conference","formatted":{"value":"conference","label":"Conference"}},"vf_event_more_information_link":{"value":"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/about\/info\/course-and-conference-office\/events\/ees22-10\/","formatted":"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/about\/info\/course-and-conference-office\/events\/ees22-10\/"},"vf_event_registration_link":{"value":"https:\/\/embl.ungerboeck.com\/PROD\/emc00\/register.aspx?OrgCode=10&EvtID=6361&AppCode=REG&CC=122041437983","formatted":"https:\/\/embl.ungerboeck.com\/PROD\/emc00\/register.aspx?OrgCode=10&EvtID=6361&AppCode=REG&CC=122041437983"},"vf_event_start_time":{"value":"","formatted":""},"vf_event_end_time":{"value":"","formatted":""},"vf_event_location":{"value":["67","364"],"formatted":["EMBL Heidelberg","Virtual"]},"vf_event_time_zone":{"value":"europe\/london","formatted":"Europe\/London"},"vf_event_ss_subtype":{"value":null,"formatted":null},"vf_event_embo_subtype":{"value":"embo_embl_symposium","formatted":{"value":"embo_embl_symposium","label":"EMBO | EMBL Symposium"}},"vf_event_featured":{"value":"0","formatted":false},"vf_event_organisers_listing":{"value":"Anne Ephrussi, Wendy V.
