Novel Synthetic Nucleic Acids and the Targeting of
Biologically Important RNAs
This PhD Summer School on Nucleic Acid Chemical Biology is
organised by the Nucleic Acid Center (NAC), University of Southern Denmark
as an intensive four days course including the
NACB Symposium
(June 24
– 25, 2009) with
thirteen lectures presented by
leading scientists on various subjects within nucleic acid chemical biology.
The subjects of the Summer School include:
- Antisense
oligonucleotides
- Antigene
oligonucleotides
- RNA aptamers
- siRNA
- Biomolecular NMR
- Locked nucleic
acids (LNA)
- Nucleic acid
nanotechnology
During the first two days of the Summer School a number of introductory/general lectures
will be given by invited speakers and the NAC-staff on the topics listed
above, bringing the participants up-to-date on these subjects prior to the
start of the NACB Symposium. In addition, there will be group discussions,
a session for short talks by the participating PhD-students, and a poster
session.
PhD students who wish to participate are strongly encouraged to submit
abstracts for oral and/or poster presentations.
The summer school is open to
attendance by all interested parties.
Five ECTS
credits
from the University of Southern Denmark will be awarded for the
successful completion of the Summer School program.
