On January 8 to 10, 2024 in Rhode Island, the International Human RNome Project Consortium held our first meeting.  It kicks off the initial step of the Human RNome Project.  Discussions ranged from standards for technology development, reference cell lines and data format as well as databases.  The Consortium members are now working towards a paper on the first steps of the project.  

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine has released its consensus report titled Charting a Future for Sequencing RNA and Its Modifications.  

Science Reporter, Elizabeth Pennisi, wrote an article titled, " RNA deserves its own massive counterpart to the Human Genome Project researchers argue."
