What is RNA Nanotechnology?[edit]

RNA Nanotechnology refers to the interdisciplinary field that combines nanotechnology principles with the unique properties of RNA (ribonucleic acid) molecules. This emerging field explores the design, synthesis, and application of RNA-based nanostructures for various purposes, including drug delivery, diagnostics, and therapeutic interventions. Traditionally known for its role in cellular processes, RNA has gained attention for its potential in constructing nanoscale structures with diverse functionalities[1][2].[3]
