Group Members
Before joining UEA, Tamas worked as a postdoctoral researcher at The Sainsbury Laboratory in Professor David Baulcombe's group where he identified and characterised genes required for post-transcriptional gene silencing (Cell, Science, The Plant Cell, EMBO Journal). He started his own laboratory in 2002 which has been home to numerous researchers and students. Key discoveries from the group include identification and function of microRNAs in embryonic development (PNAS, Brain Research, RNA), first discovery of a microRNA mutation causing human disease (Nature Genetics) and molecular and bioinformatics approaches to non-coding RNA genome annotation (Nature, Nature Genetics, Genome Research).
