Large scale mRNA synthesis could be streamlined with thermostable RNA polymerase research advance
Posted on Tuesday, September 8, 2020 By Nicole Kelesoglu
Once a successful mRNA based vaccine is identified for COVID-19, the next hurdle for biopharma is producing a world supply of therapeutic mRNA. Production efficiency will be paramount for this undertaking! As RNA synthesis is evolving for use in medicine, RNA polymerase research is key to improving how RNA is made. Learn about an advance that could streamline conventional mRNA manufacturing workflows by safely circumventing the need for costly purification in this interview with NEB RNA Research Staff Scientist, Bijoyita Roy, Ph.D.

Reforestation Offers Benefits Over Carbon Credits
Posted on Tuesday, September 8, 2020 By Lydia Morrison
Could reforestation efforts be the key to controlling climate change? Trees are able to sequester carbon efficiently, but they offer more than that. Trees also help control ground temperature, extend animal habitats and provide an income source to farmers. Reforestation offers broader reaching benefits than other carbon emission offset measures.
