The Australian Government has released a blueprint describing what governments, academia and industry can do to grow a vibrant RNA research and industry ecosystem.
‘Australia’s RNA Blueprint: Understanding our Ribonucleic acid (RNA) potential’ adds to the Medical Science Co-investment Plan released earlier this year.
The blueprint focuses on actions relating to 5 goals:
- connect and promote our National RNA ecosystem
- increase skills and access to infrastructure
- improve research, translation and investment
- lead RNA regulation and guidance development
- build and strengthen international partnerships.
The blueprint complements initiatives to support innovation and expand domestic manufacturing. These include the National Reconstruction Fund and the Industry Growth Program.
