miRules The rules of miRNA-target interactions

Coordinator: UNIVERSITA TA MALTA (MT)

Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are short regulatory RNA molecules which modulate the levels of RNA and proteins in cells.Understanding the role of miRNAs in health and disease is a field with high engagement in molecular biology and biomedicine, with over 50 000 scientific articles published in the past 5 years (PubMed search “microrna[MeSH Terms]”).However, predicting their molecular targets is still a major unsolved challenge, and the state-of-the-art bioinformatic solutions for this task remain far from perfect. First, the task requires an exceptionally high accuracy and precision, as it can be compa…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

The project runs over approximately 2 years from 2025-05-01 to 2027-04-30.
