Biochemistry and Biophysics of the Cytoskeleton

We received the Swiss starting Grant!!!!!!!

                                  ......and are recruiting Postdocs

Cells have a complex actin and microtubule cytoskeleton network. This network is essential for many processes in cells: cell migration, division, differentiation…. We want to understand how the cytoskeleton is organized and regulated in space and time, resulting in a functional architecture. To understand the underlying principles, we study the cytoskeleton dynamics, mechanics and interactions using divers systems: cell lines, diatoms and purified proteins.

Congratulations, Julie, on receiving the Geneva Life Sciences Prize 2024!

Well done and truly well-deserved!
