We couldn't have done this without you Jeff!! Big thanks to Jeff Welsh who was the key driver in setting up our plasmid and mRNA production capabilities, building on his decades of experience in biotechnology. Thank you Jeff - make the best of your next journey down in Tasmania!
Palli Thordarson@PalliThordarson

Thank you Jeff!!! Jeff Welsh @UNSWRNA inargual Production Manager, plasmid & mRNA guru & all around #mRNA legend is leaving us for a life-changing move to Tasmania. Many @UNSWBABS @UNSW will also recognise Jeff for his many contributions to UNSW in the last decades. Cheers Jeff!

Congratulations to @UNSWRNA Academic group leader Dr. Selene Ferandez Valverde @SelFdz from @UNSWBABS on her @Nature paper! This important paper describes the Mexican Biobank project which can improve medicine & answer questions about ancestry relevant to Mexico's history. #RNA
Selene FeRNAndez@SelFdz

Very excited to share that the first 🇲🇽MX Biobank paper is now out! rdcu.be/dojZ5 Check out the 🧵👇🏽 This is the first 'big' project I'm involved in from grant writing to publication. A lot of the original grant was written in goblin mode in a Starbucks😅 1/2

Congratulations on to the @KirbyInstitute team including our @UNSWRNA members, A/Prof. Stuart Turville, Prof. Antony Kelleher and Dr. Chantelle Ahlenstiel. We are very proud to be supporting the on-going development of this siRNA COVID-19 treatment.
UNSW Science@UNSWScience

1/2 Lab data in cells shows short interfering RNA (siRNA) could treat COVID-19 infection better than current antivirals, in new research from @KirbyInstitute & @UNSWRNA. In cells tested, siRNA treatment reduced virus levels by up to 99.9% for all SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern.

Selene @SelFdz uses #genomics & #bioinformatics to explore the role of regulatory RNAs on plants, animal and human diversity & understanding how non-coding #RNAs evolve, to help create programs for rapidly identifying those with functional or biotechnological significance. 3/4

Fantastic first day here at the Shine-Dalgarno Symposia! So much cool RNA science and history. And a great opportunity for the whole Australian RNA community to meet up!
Palli Thordarson@PalliThordarson

Lynn Dalgarno, John Shine & Thomas Preiss @tominaustralia at the opening of the Shine-Dalgarno Centre for RNA Innovation. Lynn made the point that they were just curious- didn't have any special outcome in mind even though their discovery had a huge impact on Biotechnology! #RNA
