Dear friends of RNA,
we are happy to announce the 14. Mini-Symposium of the RMU-RNA Salon “Genomics approaches in RNA biology”!
The RMU-RNA Salon is designed as a series of events to bring together scientists interested in RNA biology within the extended Rhine-Main area to increase the awareness for available methods and to fuel interactions.
When: Tuesday, June 2nd 2026, 12:30 – 6:00 pm
Where: Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, Alte Mensa – Room 00 156 (Atrium maximum), Johann-Joachim-Becher-Weg 3-5, 55128 Mainz

Niels Gehring (University of Cologne) – Insights into human (RNA-)Biology using inducible degron systems
Invited speakers:
Tamer Butto (IMB Mainz) – mapping pre-rRNA processing & modification
Xinlai Cheng (BMLS Frankfurt) – chemical biology & RNA regulation
Rebecca Hinrichs (PU Marburg) – RNase & DNA uptake
Ulrich Hohmann (IMB Mainz) – nuclear mRNA export & degradation
Benedict Tan (PU Marburg) – mitochondrial transcription
Sina Wittmann (IMB Mainz) – transcriptional condensates
