The cytoskeleton and the cell membrane in the immune system
Monday 25th July, 10:30am - 4:30pm
Franklin Theatre, Institute of Physics, London
This one day, IOP-sponsored workshop will focus on the biophysics of the cytoskeleton and cell membrane in health and disease, with a particular focus on combining modelling and experimental
approaches. The day will involve a mix of talks and discussion, with the purpose of initiating new research and collaborations.
Proposed topics include:
- Membrane shape during phagocytosis
- The role of actin in endocytosis
- Shape dependence of engulfment
- Nanoparticle drug design
- The role of the cytoskeleton in phagocytosis
Confirmed speakers so far include:
- Martin Howard, John Innes Centre, Norwich
- Christian Soeller, University of Exeter
- Steve Royle, University of Warwick
- Rhoda Hawkins, University of Sheffield
- Andrew Thorley, Imperial College London
