EURECA

Exploring RNA modifications
to revolutionise cancer care

Shaping the future of cancer research

Everything you need to know about the project

EURECA — the European Epitranscriptomics of Cancer Academy — is a training and research programme focused on RNA modifications in cancer. These chemical changes to RNA, once overlooked, are now recognised as important drivers of cancer initiation and progression. By studying them, EURECA researchers aim to improve early detection, prediction, and treatment focusing on prostate cancer, neuroblastoma and glioma.
