Report as SpamDescription
The second annual Oxford RNAi Conference, RNAi2007, will address most aspects of biology and application of RNA interference. The conference is aimed at bringing together leading experts in the field from both academia and industry, postdoctoral scientists, graduate research students and research managers. Thus this event provides an excellent opportunity to discover the latest research directions and thinking in this fast moving field in academic and commercial settings as well as to develop new collaborative links.
Conference topics will include:
The role of siRNAs, microRNAs and other non-coding small RNA molecules in gene regulation
RNAi in chromatin modification and regulation
MicroRNAs in health and disease
Technical and methodological advances in siRNA
selection, delivery and optimisation of efficacy of small RNAs in exogenous applications
RNAi libraries in genome-wide functional studies
RNAi in drug target discovery and validation
RNA therapeutics and clinical candidates
Who Should Attend
Academic and Research Institutes: Group and Lab Heads, Postdoctoral Scientists and Graduate Research Students, Research Managers
Biotech and Pharma Industry: CEOs, Chief Scientists, Group Heads and Team Leaders, Senior and Junior Research Scientists, Research Managers
Important Dates
