Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following event: FASEB Conference: The Biology of Cilia and Flagella

Research on the biology of the cilium has seen explosive growth as its essential roles in cell signaling and human disease are now well recognized. This SRC provides an intellectual nexus for a broad range of cilia investigators including human geneticists, cell, molecular, and developmental biologists, biochemists, and physician scientists. Cutting-edge research presentations provide a current view of technological advances in ciliary imaging, signal transduction, structural biology, and human disease. The meeting also showcases innovative applications of model organisms, such as Drosophila, C. elegans, and zebrafish for fundamental discovery and high-throughput screening approaches that impact therapeutic assay development.

Highlights

Oral presentations will be selected from submitted abstracts, and the talks, poster presentations, professional development workshops, and free time for recreation will provide students and postdoctoral fellows opportunities to exchange ideas and generate new collaborations.
