Cellular Self-Defense: Functions of Microtubules in Neuronal Responses to Injury

Featuring:

Melissa Rolls
Penn State

  September 28, 2011 @ 05:00 pm to 06:00 pm

  108 Wartik Laboratory

Dr. Rolls is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Penn State Research Interests Subcellular compartmentalization of neurons Research Summary The Rolls lab uses live imaging and Drosophila genetics to investigate two broad areas of neuronal cell biology: neuron polarity, focusing on microtubule polarity neuronal responses to injury including degeneration and regeneration
