Wyoming Sensory Biology COBRE
Abstract The primary mission of the Wyoming Sensory Biology COBRE (SBC) is to foster and conduct high-quality scientific research that advances the understanding of our sensory systems and disorders related to them. SBC will accomplish its mission through the augmentation and strengthening of UW’s institutional biomedical research capacity. This will be accomplished through building a […]
Bacterial Mechanisms for Establishing and Maintaining Cell Polarity
Many rod-shaped bacteria are polarized, meaning that one end of the cell is morphologically and functionally distinct from the other, but there is a general lack of understanding of the mechanisms by which polar asymmetry is established and maintained. Since polarized features provide critical spatial cues for many processes, including chromosome segregation and cell growth, […]
