46th BSCB GenSoc UK Cilia Network e-symposium
Date: 16 January 2024 Time: 15:00 - 17:45
46th BSCB GenSoc UK Cilia Network e-symposium
Our first e-symposium of 2024- please join us for an amazing showcase of cilia diversity to kick off the year! We have something for everyone from repurposing master motile transcriptional regulators through to mindblowing volumetric EM of cilia in situ on iselt beta cells and across development of cerebellar granule cells and cellular connections they form. How cilia control neuronal cell type specific behaviours to cocaine and how rare disease informs on how different cell types use different tubulin isotypes to build their axonemes. Don't miss this!
15:00 - 15:05 Pleasantine Mill Opening remarks
