Microtubules and Transport inside Neurons (MTTN 2023)

Thursday 16 Nov 2023, 08:45 → 17:30 Europe/Paris

Amphithéatre - Bâtiment 111 (Institut Curie - Orsay)

The poster of the conference is now available at the bottom of this page (affiche_MTTN_v4.pdf), don't hesitate to display it in your lab.

Abstract submission deadline postponed until the 7th of November!

This workshop deals with microtubules and intracellular transport in neurons. 
The topics that will be considered range from the biophysical properties of 
microtubules, the various proteins that can modify these properties, 
the structure of the cytoskeletal network in the axon, the intracellular 
transport in neurons, the interactions between motors and microtubules, 
and many others. 

MTTN2023 is organized in the frame of the PhysBioPS project, in order to 
promote exchanges between Physics and Biology. 

Abstracts can be proposed for oral or poster presentations.

Ce workshop est consacré aux microtubules et au transport intracellulaire 
dans les neurones. 
Parmi les sujets qui pourront être abordés, on trouve les propriétés des 
microtubules, les protéines qui modifient ces propriétés, 
la structure du cytosquelette dans l'axone, le transport intracellulaire 
dans les neurons, ou encore les interactions entre moteurs et microtubules. 

MTTN2023 est organisé dans le cadre du projet PhysBioPS, 
dont le but est de promouvoir les échanges entre Physique et Biologie. 

Il est possible de proposer un abstract pour communication orale ou poster.
