Welcome to Junk RNA Research Laboratory


Around 95% of the human genome has been named as "junk DNA". This concept has changed during the last decades and non coding RNA is a hot topic of research. Although we mainly work in microRNAs, in the Junk RNA Laboratory we are interested in all that relates to non coding RNAs. We would like this blog to be a way of communicating and exchanging ideas with other labs; please feel free to post your comments and suggestions!

    Hello! I have read your posts and I hope the blog is operative as soon as possible because I would like to learn more and have more knowledges about junk RNA.

    I have understood that this Junk RNA had no interest because some kind of prejudices in the past.

    I cannot understand how people supposed to be open minded can think such that way. But suppose that this could be another episode in Science as the Galileo one about the centre of Solar System.

    Thank you for your mentality!

    Thanks very much,
    we also think science has to be open minded and that this field of research is so broad that we shouldn´t constrict it with prejudices.Mad hypothesis build great science many times
    Thanks for your comment!

    Europe must invest in RNA research to unlock the potential of personalised medicine says Professor Jörg Vogel

    ...

    I liked this one:

    "Meanwhile the scientific argument for stepping up RNA research is accumulating fast and becoming overwhelming, identifying RNA as the mediator in the middle of just about every important set of chemical reactions in all complex organisms. It is not too late for Europe in turn to become a major actor in this drama, but there is an urgent need now for serious strategic planning – and funding."

    Or, if you really want to get dirty:
