Biography

Eyal Maori is a leading researcher in the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Cambridge, focusing on RNA transmission in organisms. His group is broadly interested in the interconnections of RNA, infection, immunity, and genome dynamics, particularly in honeybees. His research employs RNA biochemistry techniques along with imaging and high-throughput sequencing to define the beneficial RNA movements within cells, tissues, and organisms. The goal is to advance the understanding of RNA transmission systems in various biological contexts, ultimately contributing to the development of RNA-based applications for sustainability, health, and disease control. Some objectives of Dr. Maori's research include establishing methods to study natural RNA transmission in honeybees, characterizing transmissible RNA among recipient honeybees, and investigating the effects of transmissible RNA on the physiology and behavior of these bees. Through his work, he aims to uncover the complexities of social immunity and epigenetic communication in closely interacting organisms.
