Dear friends:
Life Science Library will be closed from Jan. 20 through Jan.29 for the Lunar New Year holidays.We will be opening on Jan. 30!
Happy New Year!

There are a limited number of BioRender available and it is recommended to apply early.

After successfully constructing autism-associated circular RNA regulatory network (Academai Sinica research news: The Circles Part I), Prof. Trees-Juen Chuang’s group (Genomics Research center, Academia Sinica) further integrated RNA-sequencing with genotype data from autistic brains to assess expression quantitative trait loci of circRNAs (circQTLs) that cis-regulate expression of nearby circRNAs and trans-regulate expression of distant genes (trans-eGenes) simultaneously......

A tour de force study by Dr. Jun-An Chen’s group at the Institute of Molecular Biology, Academia Sinica, has uncovered the diversity of spinal motor neurons in mouse embryos through single-cell RNA sequencing. Their study scrutinizing embryonic motor neurons at single-cell resolution reports rare cell types and their genetic markers, explains the transcriptomic relationships between motor neuron groups, and compares cell type diversity across different species......
