EMBO Workshop on Frontiers in Cytoskeleton Research
Dates: October 29 - November 1, 2017
Venue: IISER Pune
About the Meeting:
The cytoskeleton is a complex and dynamic assembly of different fibre networks and a multitude of associated regulatory activities. This complex assembly is involved in virtually every aspect of cell biology. In the past decades, much insight has been gained into the assembly and function of the cytoskeleton components. However, less is known about the emergent properties of these networks and their fine-tuning, both in isolation and in coordination with other macromolecular assemblies.
The current workshop brings together leading experts from all over the world with different perspectives on cytoskeletal function, including theory, in vitro reconstitution to cellular and tissue level approaches. The focus will be to collectively advance the current limits of understanding using complementary expertise and diversity of techniques already available in the community.
