Fulfilling the potential of genetic discoveries for hard-to-treat diseases requires the development of therapeutics that can specifically modulate the expression of disease-relevant genes. RNA-based drugs, including siRNAs and antisense nucleotides, are promising examples of a newer class of biologics.
Researchers have tried to overcome the major challenges for utilising RNAs in a therapeutic context, including: intracellular delivery, stability and immunogenicity over the years, with recent promising advancements made in the field now making waves in the rapidly expanding industry.
Attendees of this year’s conference will have the chance to learn more about the subject of RNA Therapeutics, as well as hear the valuable experiences and developments made by 19+ senior expert speakers in the field, as well as 5+ hours of dedicated networking time.
The conference brochure with the full two-day agenda and speaker line-up is available to download on the website, along with more exclusive event content at http://www.therapeutics-rna.com/openpr
