Pathogens have spent millions of years learning how to hijack human cells. Now, researchers from the Stark lab at the IMP and the Taipale lab at the Donnelly Centre, University of Toronto, have built a platform to systematically discover how they do it: cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Thank you for attending the 20th Microsymposium on RNA Biology at the Vienna BioCenter! Three days of talks on small RNAs, from gene silencing to the role these molecules play in development, physiology, and disease.

The IMP is among Austria's leading contributors to exceptional life science research. In QED Science's new analysis of 57,455 bioRxiv preprints, Austria emerged as the strongest overperformer for its size. Of the 31 Austrian preprints in "The 1%", 11 include the IMP:
