Department seminar by Sally Horne-Badovinac, from the University of Chicago: “Going in circles gets you somewhere: signaling mechanisms that coordinate individual cell movements for collective migration”
The collective migration of cells within an epithelial sheet underlies tissue remodeling events associated with morphogenesis, wound repair, and the metastatic cascade. Yet little is known about how each epithelial cell coordinates its movements […]

“Regulatory networks that control the Lyme Borreliosis spirochete’s infectious cycle”
The infectious cycle of Borrelia burgdorferi, the Lyme borreliosis spirochete, necessitates persistent infection of both vertebrates and ticks, and efficient means of transmission between those two very different types of hosts. Studies from our […]

C3BI Seminar: Learning tumor phylogenies from single-cell data
Cancer progression is an evolutionary process characterized by the accumulation of mutations and responsible for tumor growth, clinical progression, and drug resistance development. We discuss how to reconstruct the evolutionary history of a tumor […]
