The international conference Tailoring RNA binding proteins and RNA targeting will be held in Valencia on 14^th and 15^th September 2022. The Conference intends to bring together experts in the field that cover the broad scope of RNAct, from RNA binding proteins to RNA and back.

The conferrence aims to be a platform for high-level discussions involving academic experts and scientists from the biotech and pharma industries, covering the interactions between RBPs and RNA, the (re-)design of RBPs, the mechanisms of RBP-mediated post-transcriptional regulation, and the industrial application of RNA targeting/binding, including the targeting of RNA/RBPs by small molecules, in fields such as bioanalytics and synthetic biology.

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS OPEN – The call for the international conference “Tailoring RNA binding proteins and RNA targeting” is now open for submissions. You can find more information at the following link: http://rnact.eu/FinalConference/#abstracts

Joel Roca Martínez and Luca Sperotto visited Giotto Biotech laoratories in these days. They worked toghether with Anna Pérez i Ràfols, our PhD student, on RNAct project supported by Prof. Marco Fragai and Tommaso Martelli, PhD. Joel and Luca come respectvely from Vrije Universiteit (Brussel) and Helmholtz Zentrum (München).

Thanks to Innovative Training Networks Marie Curie that offers the possibility to train a new generation of creative, entrepreneurial and innovative early-stage researchers!

Giotto Biotech is one of the winning companies of Faber 2. Thanks to this funding, a new resource will become part of our team and will develop a research project addressed to the Italian agro-food companies. The project intends to apply nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) based metabolomics for the determination of the quality and the geographic characterization of agro-food product.

Faber 2 is a project of the di Fondazione CR Firenze, Confindustria Firenze and Fondazione per la Ricerca e l’Innovazione, promoted by Università degli Studi di Firenze and Città Metropolitana di Firenze.

Sep 23-25, 2019 at Convitto della Calza in Florence, Italy.

International conference New Frontiers in Structure-Based Drug Discovery,

Attracting a high-level audience of researchers, the conference will provide a stimulating platform to discuss with academic experts and scientists from biotech and pharmaceutical industries. Topics include innovative screens on protein-protein interactions, novel targets and target validation, structure-based drug discovery, computational approaches and more. The conference will provide a valuable platform to discuss the challenges and opportunities of modern drug discovery in academia and industry.

The first RNAct meeting was held in Brussels. Tommaso Martelli and Marco Fragai, as Giotto Biotech reference people for the network, met with the other partners to start the project (Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, Helmholtz Zentrum Muenchen, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas, Dynamic Biosensors GmbH, Ridgeview Instruments AB).

If you want to participate in our RNAct training network, you can apply for one of the open positions until March 15, 2019.
