Berkeley is an academic capital on the West Coast of the United States and will be a vibrant background for our meeting. Berkeley is also a short subway ride from the cosmopolitan city of San Francisco, and provides a base to explore the Bay Area and iconic national parks such as Sequoia and Yosemite.\u00a0 San Francisco is a large hub for international flights.\u00a0 Oakland and San Jose airports provide additional travel options.\u00a0 The U.C., Berkeley campus has modern, comfortable dormitory suites, which will offer an affordable alternative to the many excellent hotels in the San Francisco Bay Area.<\/p>\n<h2>2018 Organizers<\/h2>\n<div class=\"organizer\"><strong>Adrian Ferr\u00e9-D\u2019Amar\u00e9<\/strong> \u2014 National Institutes of Health, Bethesda<\/div>\n<div class=\"organizer\"><strong>Atlanta Cook<\/strong> \u2014 Wellcome Centre for Cell Biology, Edinburgh<\/div>\n<div class=\"organizer\"><strong>Anne Ephrussi<\/strong> \u2014 EMBL, Heidelberg<\/div>\n<div class=\"organizer\"><strong>Don Rio<\/strong> \u2014 University of California, Berkeley<\/div>\n<div class=\"organizer\"><strong>Mihaela Zavolan<\/strong> \u2014 Biozentrum, University of Basel<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-3294\" src=\"http:\/\/rnasociety.org\/conferences\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/rna2018-berkeley.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"725\" height=\"481\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rnasociety.org\/conferences\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/rna2018-berkeley.jpg 725w, https:\/\/www.rnasociety.org\/conferences\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/rna2018-berkeley-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rnasociety.org\/conferences\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/rna2018-berkeley-250x166.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 725px) 100vw, 725px\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome The RNA Society is pleased to invite you to its 23rd annual meeting, to be held in Berkeley, California from May 29 to June 3, 2018.\u00a0 As before, the meeting aims to bring together the community of RNA scientists &hellip;
