SBME Research Seminar: The RNA folding problem remains open – Dr. Rhiju Das
The discovery and design of biologically important RNA molecules has lagged behind proteins, in part due to the general difficulty of three-dimensional RNA structural characterization. What are the prospects for an ‘AlphaFold moment’ for RNA? I’ll describe some recent progress in modeling RNA structure from old-fashioned and new machine learning, cryoelectron microscopy, and current and upcoming internet-scale competitions hosted on the Eterna, Kaggle, and CASP platforms.

SBME Propels: Workshop 4: Securing Funding – Mastering Dilutive & Non-Dilutive Funding For Your Startup Idea
February 13 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm PST
SBME Propels: Workshop 4: Securing Funding – Mastering Dilutive & Non-Dilutive Funding For Your Startup Idea
This workshop provides an in-depth look at non-dilutive funding opportunities, such as NSERC’s Idea to Innovation (I2I) grants and GenomeBC GeneSolve, that support the translation of research into market-ready solutions. Participants will learn how to align their research and solutions with the goals of these funding programs, craft compelling narratives, and leverage funding to advance their projects towards commercialization. The session will include insights from funding experts and practical advice on navigating the application process.
Registration is required.
