Denis Krndija (MCD-CBI), Audrey Dussutour (CRCA-CBI) and Hervé Turlier (MCD-CBI) are the recipients of this award, which supports international collaboration in basic research aimed at elucidating the complex mechanisms that govern living organisms.
Denis Krndija has secured a three-year Research Grants funding for the project ‘Regulation of collective cell migration by electromechanical patterns in the gut’, in collaboration with Thuan Beng Saw (Westlake University, China) and Franck Jülicher (MPI-PSK, Dresden). The consortium will investigate how electrical and mechanical signals coordinate cellular behaviour in the intestinal epithelium.
Audrey Dussutour and Hervé Turlier have secured an Accelerator Grants funding, enabling them to add a partner to their respective projects. As a result, Sourav Banerjee (Department of Molecular & Cellular Neuroscience, National Brain Research Centre, Manesar, India) has become a partner in the project ‘Molecular memories in single cells: An integrated approach to how cells learn’, which includes Audrey Dussutour, and Yuta Shimamoto (Department of Chromosome Science, National Institute of Genetics – NIG, Shizuoka, Japan) as a partner on Hervé Turlier’s project ‘Comparative biophysics of spindle asymmetry and polar lobes in spiralian embryos’.
