SpotlightsIn recognition of the outstanding lives and accomplishments of our members, each month we profile two RNA Society members—one Full member and one Student/Post-doctoral Fellow member—as part of our Member Spotlight Series. Read about your colleagues’ career paths, their advice for succeeding in science, and their favorite RNA! Featured SpotlightsDr. Lin Huang leads a research group at Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital and Sun Yat-Sen University in China. His research delves into understanding RNA motifs and the functions of a wide range of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), such as riboswitches, ribozymes, microbial ncRNAs, long noncoding RNAs, and circular RNAs. Dr. Huang hopes to learn how ncRNAs contribute to human diseases. Rui Sousa-Luís is a PhD student developing computational and experimental techniques to measure RNA transcription and dynamics at the University of Lisbon and the University of Oxford. In this month’s spotlight, written by Maxime Wery and edited by Jennifer Porat, he shares his experiences navigating a joint international PhD and the importance of collaborations and connections in driving meaningful scientific advancement. |
