Researchers investigate circular RNA’s influence on muscle development in cerebral palsy
University of Delaware’s Mona Batish is a molecular biologist. She studies circular RNAs formed as a result of so-called molecular mistakes that occur when a strand of RNA—the ribonucleic acid that tells the body how to use DNA—gets kinked and sort of does a backflip, producing a circular product. These circular anomalies were originally thought of as errors, but today circular RNAs are known to play a role in … ⌘ Read more
