RNA Club 2010

České Budějovice, Czech Republic (November 05, 2010)

The goal of RNA Club is to bring together enthusiastic researchers from the Czech Republic, as well as other countries near and far, to increase the overall awareness of the cutting edge research on RNA biology. Furthermore, we hope that the RNA club will serve to stimulate scientific exchange and create opportunities for new collaborations among the participants.
