February 7, 2014
Our first CSB seminar will be on February 7, 2014! The seminar will start at 12:30pm in 68-121. Our speaker will be Rotem Gura of CSB!
Title: Characterizing cytosolic motion of proteins using live imaging of photo-convertible fluorophores.
Description: It is commonly assumed that proteins diffuse randomly in the cytosol, even though crowding and protein-protein interactions significantly affect protein motion. To watch proteins move in living cells, we image the propagation of photo-convertible fluorophores throughout the cytosol and compare these movies to simulations of physical models.
Future seminars will be every other Friday at 12:30 in 68-121.
