Invited by the Léon Lab, Isabelle Sagot (Institut de Biochimie et Génétique Cellulaires - IBGC, Bordeaux) will give an Institut Jacques Monod Seminars entitled: The cell biology of quiescent yeast   Cells perpetually face the decision to proliferate or to enter a non-dividing state. Quiescence, a state defined as a reversible arrest of proliferation, is the most…

Invited by the Borghi, Marie Breau (CRCN INSERM, Institut de Biologie Paris-Seine (IBPS), Sorbonne Université, Laboratoire de Biologie du Développement) will present an Institut Jacques Monod Seminars on the theme: Mechanical interactions between tissues during the morphogenesis of the zebrafish olfactory placode   Abstract: Neuronal circuit assembly requires neuronal migration and axon/dendrite growth, which are believed to be…

Invited by the Konstantinides Lab, Dafni Hadjieconomou (Team leader at the GutSense lab, Paris Brain Institute (ICM)) will present an Institut Jacques Monod Seminars on the theme: "Mind the gut" a tale of two brains   Abstract: A series of tightly controlled processes ensure that energy is either stored or consumed within an organism. This control is central…

Invited by the Prioleau Lab, Ichiro Hiratani (RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research (RIKEN BDR), Kobe, Japan) will present an Institut Jacques Monod Seminar on the theme: Unraveling the dynamic 3D genome architecture through single-cell DNA replication profiling   Abstract: Hi-C technology has revolutionized genome biology, revealing that mammalian chromosomes are partitioned into megabase-sized topologically associating domains (TADs).…

Invited by the Ladoux/Mège Lab, Jacopo Di Russo (REMeD lab - Interdisciplinary Centre for Clinical Research, RWTH Aachen University and DWI – Leibniz-Institute for Interactive Materials) will present an IJM seminar on the theme: Mesoscale Epithelial Mechanobiology and Cellular Interfaces   Abstract: Mechanical properties regulate tissue functions at a multicellular length scale or mesoscale. These properties depend on…
