FIBER FUTURE COLLEGE in Nucleic Acid Chemistry Universe12 was held and a debriefing on the latest results was reported.

　Frontier Institute for Biomolecular Engineering Research (FIBER) invites leading researchers in the field of nucleic acid chemistry to give public lectures at the “FIBER FUTURE COLLEGE”.
　At the FIBER Nucleic Acid Chemistry Universe 12, we held an open seminar on “International Research Center of Nucleic Acid Chemistry for Developing Methods to Regulate Gene Expression Using Non-Canonical Structure of Nucleic Acids,” as an on-going project of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) “Core-to-Core Program”.
　Two young researchers from Japan and the UK who are participating in this project gave presentation on their latest research results.
