It's all about RnA

It's all about RnA

There is no life without RNA. Once considered a simple messenger, RNA is now recognized as a key regulator of cellular function and gene expression. At MAGE Lab, we investigate how RNA-binding proteins control RNA maturation, transport and translation, and how disruptions in these processes contribute to diseases such as cancers and neurodegenerative diseases. By combining molecular biology, advanced imaging and in vivo models, we aim to uncover the mechanisms that shape RNA biology and human health.
