Center for Cellular Dynamics (CCD)

A group of labs at Penn State with shared interests in: cytoskeleton and intracellular transport; cellular changes during development and disease; cell-cell communication and interactions; live imaging.

dispersing cellsCCD labs have our homes in different departments at Penn State (Biology, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Chemistry, and Bioengineering). CCD members participate in departmental graduate programs, as well as interdisciplinary graduate programs organized through the Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences.

We use the CCD to share ideas and expertise, to organize events that stimulate creative thinking, and create a more collaborative and exciting research community.

To get in touch with the CCD, contact faculty members, or CCD director, Melissa Rolls.
