Brown Bag Seminar
Q-AOS Brown Bag Seminar Series The 79th Seminar “Development of small molecules targeting RNA ~Toward the creation of small-molecular tools to modulate RNA function and the drug discovery for RNA targets~”
The Q-AOS Brown Bag Seminar Series are held every Wednesday lunch time from April 2021. The purpose of this webinar series is to provide opportunities not only to learn research related with SDGs in Asian and Oceanian regions and but also to expand your research network in different academic areas. The webinar is free, available in English and Japanese, and open to everyone! We hope you all come and join us!

Abstract
Asako Murata is an associate professor at Faculty of Engineering Sciences. From April 2022, she just moved from Osaka University to Kyushu University and started her own lab. In 2001, she graduated from the College of Biology, University of Tsukuba, where she learned neurobiology. In graduate school, at the University of Tokyo, she changed her major and was engaged in organic synthesis of nucleic acid analogs that can be applicable to oligonucleotide therapeutics. After receiving her Ph.D. in 2006, she worked in chemical biology as a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Baylor College of Medicine in the United States and the Institute for Chemical Research at Kyoto University for four years. In 2010, she started her research on small molecules that bind to nucleic acids (DNA/RNA) at the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research, Osaka University. She spent 12 years there as a postdoctoral fellow, assistant professor, and associate professor. Currently, her lab is focusing on the development and discovery of small molecules that bind to RNA and modulate its function, aiming for drug discovery for diseases associated with RNA dysfunction.
