Development of advanced RNA visualization tools to study RNA dynamics and splicing regulation in health and disease using fluorescence microscopy techniques.
Description
This project aims to develop a multiplexed RNA visualization toolbox using advanced fluorescence microscopy, including fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), to study RNA dynamics, U-bodies, and their roles in gene regulation and disease. The research may shed light on potential treatment and disease management strategies for human health.
