PolarNet
@ITN_PolarNet
We are 15 PhD students studying the basic principles of cell polarity willing to share our science. We are part of the Marie Curie ITN PolarNet program.
Congratulations to Charles Puerner and Robert Arkowitz for this beautiful paper! Using optogenetics they show how increased membrane localization of cdc42 in polarized cells resets growth and causes de novo clustering of secetory vesicles #ProudPolarNet cell.com/cell-reports/f…
Apply now for these awesome new positions @GurdonInstitute: we seek one or more Group Leaders, especially in cancer biology, AND 2 talented Postdocs for an exciting project on the human lung, as part of the Human Disease Biology Initiative. bit.ly/2J3kF1I

#PolarNet symposium starts strong with a beautiful talk of @YanlanMao about tissue fluidity and wound healing

Here we go! Opening of #PolarNet Symposium with our coordinator Dr. Mike Boxem

Joint 'First person' interview with Bertille Bance @icm_institute and Shailaja Seetharaman @institutpasteur on their project studying the role of microtubule acetylation in cell migration: jcs.biologists.org/content/132/7/…
Looking forward to it! Full Program here: polarnet-itn.eu/polarnet-sympo…
Fan of #Wnt gradients?Check out our latest #review where we discuss how hepatocellular Wnt activation #gradients might be maintained in the mammalian #liver. We also provide a summary of the exquisite distribution of Wnt ligands/receptors across the lobule doi.org/10.1016/j.ceb.…
Join us @ITN_PolarNet symposium for an exciting day (13/9) of tissue and cell #polarity in beautiful Utrecht! Excellent line up of speakers! Visit the symposium website polarnet-itn.eu/polarnet-sympo… for (free) registration and further details!
