3RD COURSE ON
CYTOSKELETON 2011
Description of course:
The general objective of this course is to understand the role of the cytoskeleton in
membrane trafficking at different levels: molecular and structural, in reconstitution
systems, and in the cell and organism.
Organizers: Guillaume Montagnac, Winfried Römer, Danijela Vignjevic
