Image Description

The Australian Academy of Science (the Academy) and the Australian and New Zealand RNA Production Consortium (ANZRPC) hosted a roundtable on Thursday 29 July 2021 to bring together experts in RNA science and technology from academia and industry to: 

  • identify Australia’s RNA research strengths
  • define research priorities and provide guidance on how to build a national RNA science and technologies ecosystem
  • discuss how to build a framework that will create a pipeline from discovery to translation, leading to clinical stage and commercial RNA manufacturing in Australia.

These proceedings, aimed at policymakers and science funders, detail the discussions about how Australia can play a leading role in the global ecosystem of RNA science and harness the opportunities for Australian industry to develop RNA-based products and services for global markets.
