Cytoskeletal dynamics in the immune response: metabolic connection

Línea de investigación

Cell asymmetry in the regulation of T cell immunometabolism

Descripción

The student will have the opportunity to learn about the conceptual establishment and development of a research project in the context of T cell activation and cytoskeletal dynamics. The activities will be directed mainly to understand the tubulins structural and functional role in the adoption of cell asymmetry. The influence of this process in the metabolic switch during encounters with antigen presenting cell bearing cognate antigens will be also addressed. Cell Biology, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology techniques will be employed. Specific seminars and Journal Club will help the Master´s Degree Student to succesful complete the Master's Thesis.
