Purpose
The Annual CMBP/CRB Symposium brings together faculty mentors, graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and undergraduates representing a wide spectrum of the Life Sciences at Ohio State. In its fourteenth year of funding, the NIH CMB Training Program includes faculty and trainees from four related molecular life sciences graduate programs: Microbiology, Molecular Cellular and Developmental Biology, Molecular Genetics, and the Ohio State Biochemistry Program.
The RNA Center at OSU has a long history of interaction and active collaboration. Members of the Center for RNA Biology represent about a dozen Departments throughout OSU. There are natural synergies between these two groups and this symposium provides an opportunity not only to showcase the research of CMB Training Program and RNA Center members but also to foster new interactions.
