MicroRNA: The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2024

From Current Affairs Notes for UPSC » Editorials & In-depths » This topic
The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for their discovery of microRNAs, tiny molecules that play a key role in regulating gene expression. MicroRNAs control how genes are activated and deactivated, which is crucial for various biological processes, including development and disease. This discovery has significantly advanced our understanding of gene regulation, offering potential for future medical treatments.
