The Molecular Biology of RNA gives a comprehensive overview of the rapidly expanding field of RNA biology, distilled into an accessible and compact primer. It covers the key discoveries and pioneers of the field, as well as providing students with an understanding of its biotechnical and biomedical applications of.
Key features:
- Oxford Biology Primers are the only resource to introduce prospective and current students of undergraduate-level bioscience to a range of topics from this dynamic experimental science, enticing readers to study further.
- Its titles directly support two key transitions in the student journey: from school to undergraduate-level study, and from undergraduate to independent researcher.
- Its modular format offers a high degree of flexibility, with teachers being able to draw on specific volumes that augment the post-16 curriculum and university lecturers being able to draw on specific volumes at different stages of the undergraduate curriculum.
- All titles in the series are available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of formats: the e-book and Science Trove offer a mobile experience and convenient access along with functionality tools, navigation features, and links that offer extra learning support.

Professor Michael Ladomery Michael began his career with a BSc(Hons) degree in Genetics at the University of Melbourne, Australia. He then did a PhD at the University of St Andrews, Scotland, on the analysis of mRNA-bound proteins in Xenopus oocytes in John Sommerville's lab. He then worked as a postdoctoral research associate at St Andrews for a year, funded by the Wellcome Trust, characterising the RNA helicase Xp54 before becoming a research associate at the MRC Human Genetics Unit in Edinburgh, exploring the posttranscriptional roles of the Wilms' tumour suppressor WT1 in Nick Hastie's group. He obtained a lectureship at the University of the West of England in Bristol. He is an enthusiastic advocate of the RNA field, setting up the Scottish RNA Club in the 1990s, and then the Southwest UK RNA club in 2006. Together with David Elliott he wrote the first dedicated RNA biology textbook, The Molecular Biology of RNA in 2010 for OUP, the second edition of which published in 2015. Professor David Elliott David completed his first degree at the University of Birmingham, and then his PhD at the University of Glasgow studying mitochondrial gene expression. He then worked for four years in Boston in the lab of Michael Rosbash, studying RNA processing in yeast. David then moved to the MRC Human Genetics Unit in Edinburgh, studying RNA-binding proteins involved in male infertility. He then obtained a lectureship at Newcastle University, where his group has analysed the role of RNA processing in development and disease.
