Abstract:
During embryogenesis, from a single cell, a myriad of distinct cell types are generated in a precise spatial and temporal order. Moreover, cells dynamically organize into complex tissues and organs. In my laboratory, we study the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in neuron migration by imaging cells in vivo. I will discuss new data aimed at understanding how neurons migrate out of the epithelium during development, mechanisms that might be shared during tumor metastasis.
