This fun project was driven by the talented and rigorous Alex Gillis @cftbla.bsky.social, in wonderful collaboration with Ana Tufegdžić Vidaković's @anatv.bsky.social lab!

What happens when you suddenly remove half of an essential enzyme from cells? 🤔
We watched in real-time as cells deploy multiple backup strategies to buffer against changes in RNA Pol II abundance.

🎉 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙖 𝙙𝙖𝙮! 🎉
On Thursday we held our inaugural EMCR Mini Symposium, bringing together six in-person nodes plus online attendees from across Australasia. It was fantastic to see our community come together to share science, build connections, and finish 2025 strong.

DNA is scattered with obstacles that stall RNA polymerase II (Pol II) and block the production of full-length transcripts. Two mechanisms are known to resolve stalled Pol II: transcription-coupled nuc...
The Asia RNA Club Symposium will be happening in Seoul in Nov 3-5, bringing together RNA scientists from the Asia-Pacific region. Excellent speakers and a great opportunity to connect! Abstract submission by Sept 5 asiarnaclub.org
