Join us December 14-18, 2024 in San Diego, California for Cell Bio 2024, the joint meeting of ASCB and the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO). This is your opportunity to network with scientists, present your research, explore the exhibit hall, and learn the latest cell biology science and technology.
When the PI seems MIA
Dear Labby, I am having serious problems with my current laboratory. I attend a research institution and am in my second year of graduate school. Our PI was recently awarded a large research grant. Because of this award, the PI was able to hire a postdoc researcher. We thought this would be great because the…
Expanding the toolbox of lipid exploration
Animal cells don’t have a solid cell wall but a protective layer composed in part of oily substances called lipids. Lipids are one of the most critical types of molecules in our cells, functioning to enclose our cells in membranes. Regulation of lipid levels and specific lipid composition in membranes is crucial for normal cell…
Video-on-Demand option available for Cell Bio sessions
Cell Bio 2022 has come to a close, and I am happy to report that our first in-person meeting after the pandemic was an enormous success. Our community was excited to be back together and really enjoyed the scientific program and the many professional development offerings at the meeting. We knew that some in the…
