Delighted to host year 12 biology students from All Saints College in Bathurst today here at the UNSW RNA Institute. We walked the student through our facility and explained to them how mRNA, siRNA and other #RNA therapeutics are made and what they can be used for.

A series of bispecific antibodies acts as a “guidance system” that improves the safety and specificity of the doxorubicin derivative #caelyx against high-risk #leukemia in mice, and may facilitate the translation of liposomal drugs. Childrens Cancer Institute Prof Maria Kavallaris AM 🌈 scim.ag/2H3

Major breakthrough from our own Prof Maria Kavallaris AM 🌈 Ernest Moles at Childrens Cancer Institute in targeted cancer drug delivery, which is likely to have a huge impact on RNA therapeutic development! The key here is using bispecific antibodies and PEGylated nanoparticles. #mRNA sciencetimes.com/articles/43835…

Absolutely stunning piece of research by Prof. Matthew Disney Matt Disney Wertheim UF Scripps published in nature on Programming inactive RNA-binders into bioactive degrader. MedChem+RNA=Winning! Disney is on the UNSW RNA Institute Expert Expert Advisory Board. #ozchem #RNA nature.com/articles/s4158…

Huge thanks to Cancer Council NSW for funding our research to improve outcomes for high- risk #neuroblastoma & #sarcoma Childrens Cancer Institute UNSW Medicine & Health NanoMed UNSW RNA Institute #childhoodcancer

Fantastic first day here at the Shine-Dalgarno Symposia! So much cool RNA science and history. And a great opportunity for the whole Australian RNA community to meet up!

We were delighted to host Emma McBride MP Emma McBridie MP and Assistant Minister for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention, Assistant Minister for Rural and Regional Health here at the RNA Accelerator to discuss how we can boost the development of RNA therapeutics . #mRNA #RNA

Congratulations on to the Kirby Institute, UNSW team including our UNSW RNA Institute members, A/Prof. Stuart Turville, Prof. Antony Kelleher and Dr. Chantelle Ahlenstiel. We are very proud to be supporting the on-going development of this siRNA COVID-19 treatment.

Congratulations to UNSW RNA Institute Academic group leader Dr. Selene Ferandez Valverde Selene FeRNAndez from UNSW Biotechnology & Biomolecular Sciences on her nature paper! This important paper describes the Mexican Biobank project which can improve medicine & answer questions about ancestry relevant to Mexico's history. #RNA

Matthew Disney Matt Disney is one of our Advisory Board Members. We are very grateful to him to make the journey here to Sydney to attend our Symposium and Advisory Board meeting last week. Wishing you all the best for the remaining part of your visit to the UNSW RNA Institute !

This is a great opportunity for those that are developing RNA therapeutics. The UNSW RNA Institute is very proud to be involved in the BRIDGE program.

We at the UNSW RNA Institute were delighted to host Branwen Morgan, Nick Hong Seng Lee & Sarigama Rajesh from CSIRO We had very fruitful discussions about how we and other RNA R&D groups (incl TIA ) can work together to advance RNA therapeutics. #mRNA #ozchem #RNA

We couldn't have done this without you Jeff!! Big thanks to Jeff Welsh who was the key driver in setting up our plasmid and mRNA production capabilities, building on his decades of experience in biotechnology. Thank you Jeff - make the best of your next journey down in Tasmania!

Come and join the team! #ozchem #RNA

Incredible summary from Selene FeRNAndez about the very successful UNSW RNA Institute mission to #Brazil . We are looking forward to expanding our collaborations with a number of Institutes, Companies and Centres in Brazil on advances in (m)RNA Research and Therapeutic development. #mRNA #RNA.

We at the UNSW RNA Institute team are very proud of this that @dpinsw led! First batch of an animal mRNA vaccine that was made here in Australia by us in March in collaboration with Tiba Biotech LLC who developed this vaccine. #mRNA
