RNA Day @ Penn

Frontiers in Science: Engineering RNA & AI

AIRFoundry invites undergraduates from four-year and community college institutions attend a half-day event to learn about emerging RNA technology, engineering nanoparticles for vaccines and other uses, and how Artificial Intelligence can help accelerate discovery.

This event is geared toward undergraduates in Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, and Engineering programs interested in learning about research related to RNA technology (vaccines, therapeutics, and more) and multidisciplinary research.

During this FREE event, you will:

  • Learn from leading experts about foundational and emerging research in mRNA and delivery vehicles (Lipid Nanoparticles)
  • Learn how AI can help us with research and discovery
  • Learn about the AIRFoundry Research Center and BioFoundry
  • Visit real labs at the University of Pennsylvania
  • Attend a poster session of current graduate student researchers
  • Breakfast and lunch provided!

This event is running in conjunction with RNA Day @ Penn, hosted by the Penn Institute for RNA Innovation.

Summer Internships

The AIRFoundry has partnered with the Laboratory for Research on the Structure of Matter (LRSM) to host up to four interns.

AIRFoundry Fellows will work in AIRFoundry faculty labs  at Penn, be fully integrated in the LRSM program, and have access to exclusive workshops to learn more about AI, RNA, and lipid nanoparticle (LNP) research. Interested applicants should mention “AIRFoundry” in the comments section of their application to be considered.
