From Cells to Systems: RNA Binding Proteins at the Heart of Gene Regulation in Health and Disease, 17 April

The Centre for Reproductive Health will hold a seminar on Tuesday 17th April at 11am - 12pm in Seminar Room 2, Level 2 of the TRF Building.

Dr Minni Änkö of Monash University's Biomedicine Discovery Institute will be presenting 'From Cells to Systems: RNA Binding Proteins at the Heart of Gene Regulation in Health and Disease'.

Dr Minni Änkö’s group in the RNA Processing in Health and Disease Laboratory at Monash University investigates the contribution of RNA processing to gene regulation, combining wet and dry lab approaches.  Her research focus is on understanding how RNA binding proteins tune the gene expression output in various types of stem cells and the haematopoietic system and how aberrations in the machinery result in genetic disorders and cancer.
