Advancing Extracellular RNA (exRNA) Communication Research: Improved Isolation and Analysis of exRNA-Carrier Subclasses (UG3/UH3)

The overarching goal of this grant is to develop and evaluate innovative separation tools, technologies, and approaches that will enable the scientific community to rapidly and reproducibly sort complex biofluids into homogenous carrier populations of EVs, RNPs, and LPPs, and that also support high-throughput isolation and analysis of their extracellular RNA content and associated molecular cargo.
