Invité par Nicolas Minc, Matteo Rauzi (Université Côte d’Azur, CNRS, Inserm, iBV, Nice, France) donnera un séminaire IJM le 7 avril sur le thème : Composite morphogenesis: how can a tissue fold and extend at the same time During embryo development, epithelia can undergo different shape transformations. While these changes can be sequential, and thus driven…

Invité par l'équipe Romet-Lemonne/Jégou, Grégory Giannone donnera un séminaire sur le thème : "Deciphering the spatiotemporal and mechanical regulation of integrin and actin regulators at the nanoscale" Giannone Lab: Cells have the ability to adjust their adhesive and cytoskeletal organizations according to changes in the biochemical and physical nature of their surroundings. In return, by adhering…

Invité par l'équipe Ladoux/Mège, Prisca Liberali (Senior Group Leader, Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research -FMI) donnera le 28 février un séminaire intitulé : Design principles of tissue organization   SELF-ORGANISATION DURING COLLECTIVE BEHAVIOUR Robust experimental model systems have recently been developed from adult or induced pluripotent stem cells that self-organise into organoid structures in vitro. In particular,…

Invitée par Paul Conduit, Susana Godinho (Barts Cancer Institute, London, UK) donnera un séminaire sur le thème : Microtubules as mediators of stress responses and repair Research Cancer cells often contain extra centrosomes. The centrosome is the main microtubule-organizing centre in animal cells, an essential component of the cytoskeleton. In normal cells, centrosome number is tightly regulated,…

Invité par Sandra Duharcourt, Antoine Hocher (MRC, London Institute of Medical Sciences) donnera le 6 janvier un séminaire IJM sur le thème : Histones, beyond eukaryotes   Research Our goal is to understand how what is happening inside the cell biases the incidence of mutations, affects their persistence, and, ultimately, shapes patterns of natural variation within and between…
