April 2025 – Rocky Mountain RNA Symposium:
- Planning has begun for our Rocky Mountain RNA Symposium and we are seeking speaker nominations for our April 2025 event.
- Please use this form to nominate people doing awesome RNA research – nominations are due by August 25th.
- After August 25th, all nominations will be considered, and 4 speakers will be chosen and invited to present their research alongside local Colorado RNA researchers.
- Some criteria to consider when nominating speakers:
- We aim to bring in exciting speakers that will engage and promote the diverse Colorado RNA community, thus, speakers who are underrepresented in STEM are welcome nominees.
- Speakers from continental US will be prioritized.
- Speakers will be asked to bring a graduate student with them, thus, speakers who currently have students will be prioritized.
- If you have any questions, feel free to email eliza.lee@colorado.edu
