It’s a RNA’s World and We’re all Living in it
About this episode
This episode explores the complexities of RNA biology and Sanjay's journey from social sciences to biophysics.
Molecular biology is often introduced through the central dogma: DNA makes RNA, and RNA makes protein. But biology is rarely that simple. In this episode, Sanjay discusses how discoveries such as non-coding RNAs have expanded our understanding of how genetic information works, and how he uses computational approaches to investigate the functions and structures of these mysterious molecules. Tune in to hear about the frontier of RNA biology, the shift from PhD to postdoc, and Sanjay’s unique journey from the social sciences into biophysics. Hosted by Matthew Vaughan and Hannah Stuwe.
