Dear RNA Friends,
We are pleased to announce that the RNA 2024 Club will be held on September 19 in Brno at CEITEC (Central European Institute of Technology, Masaryk University) and will be held together with the RNA for Therapy (RNA4T) kick-off meeting on September 20. The scientific program of RNA Club will be a one-day event as usual, but this year there will be a highly recommended option to stay overnight and fully enjoy the social part of the event.
