Congratulations to biochemistry professor Brenda Bass on winning the Rosenblatt Prize, our most prestigious award and highest faculty honor. Over the course of a half-century career in science, Bass helped unlock some of the deepest mysteries of ribonucleic acid, or RNA, which had primarily been defined as a carrier of instructions for DNA to synthesize proteins in all living cells. But her pioneering research at the University of Utah transformed our understanding of RNA, uncovering new roles as an active, powerful player in biology.
