Starting from October 1st until December 31st, ABCD society (Associazione di Biologia Cellulare e del Differenziamento) offers to all members a number of interesting lectures by renowned scientists in the field.
ABCD is a scientific society whose mission is to promote the integrated study of cellular, molecular and developmental biology, based on the idea that the knowledge on fundamental aspects associated with cells’ function and response to environmental stress is critical to understand disease pathogenesis.
To this aim, ABCD is engaged in promoting scientific exchange among scientists through national and international meetings, as well as education and training of young researchers.
This year’s distinguished lecture series include talks in biological fields such as Biology of the cancer cell, Biology revealed through advanced Imaging, Cell metabolism, Cell plasticity, motility and mechanosensing, Endocytosis, Genome architecture and chromosome segregation, Membrane trafficking, Mitochondria in health and disease, Morphogenesis from cells to systems, Protein folding and degradation, Signal transduction, Understanding biology at the ultrastructural level.
The lectures are free for ABCD members.
Join ABCD and enjoy the videos!
