About the student-organized Journal Club

The student-organized Journal Club focuses on R-loops, three-stranded nucleic acid structures that play crucial roles in gene regulation and genome stability. The Journal Club provides a collaborative space for students to discuss recent findings, share insights, and deepen their understanding of R-loops and their implications in various biological processes. We are reading both new papers and classic studies that have been fundamental to the R-loop field.

As we recently started the Journal Club in 2024, we will test three different formats and locations of the journal club, in order to find the best for us. Please pay attention to the Journal Club description to see the format of each upcoming event.

Everyone is welcome to join and enjoy good new and old R-loop papers papers!
