DESCRIPTION:Life on earth likely emerged from a self-replicating RNA molec
 ule billions of years ago but we still live very much in an RNA world. Rib
 onucleic acid or RNA is the only direct product of the genomes of all livi
 ng organisms. Initially understood mostly as an intermediate between genes
  and proteins\, the molecular machines of life\, it is now clear that RNA 
 is a major substrate of cellular computation and decision making. This tal
 k will focus on many facets of RNA biology: from viruses to epigenetic inh
 eritance.
