Project Portfolio

Non-coding RNAs in Glioblastoma multiforme progression

Started June 9, 2023

Abstract or project description

The project that Krishi will be working on is a book for a younger audience. The book will be creative and will contain images, most likely created by Krishi, that will be engaging to kids. The book will discuss topics about glioblastoma multiforme, such as detection and progression. Additionally, Krishi will address the role of non-coding RNAs (i.e., microRNAs) in the development of glioblastoma multiforme. This will be achieved by explaining what microRNAs are and their main function. The book narrative has to do with cats and connects the concept of glioblastoma to a restaurant. The aim with this narrative is to make sure young audiences understand the concept.
