About this position

Primary Supervisor - Dr Alper Akay How do snRNA modifications regulate RNA splicing? Our RNA (epi)genetics laboratory addresses this broad question using the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans as an animal model. RNA is at the centre of many gene regulatory processes. There are currently more than 150 distinct chemical modifications on RNA, and a greater number of proteins are required for their synthesis and recognition. Recent discoveries have shown that RNA modifications can be dynamically regulated, and they have been implicated in embryonic development, longevity, neurological diseases and c
