Istanbul, Turkey
Centrosomes are microtubule-organizing centers (MTOC) that function in conserved and diverse cellular and organismal processes. Their deregulation causes various human diseases including cancer and developmental disorders. Multiple paradigms of centrosome biology and pathophysiology have been significantly reshaped due to emerging biological concepts and breakthrough technologies. Among these major advances are the diversity of centrosomes/MTOCs in different organisms and cell types within a...

Moltkes Palace, Copenhagen, Denmark
Centrosomes and spindle pole bodies are major microtubule organizing centres (MTOCs) of animal and yeast cells, respectively. A specialized centrosome structure also serves as template for cilia and flagella formation. These MTOCs play critical roles in cell division, cell polarity, signalling, immunity, cell motility and animal development. Centrosome abnormalities have been implicated in multiple human diseases including cancer and cilia-related syndromes. The link between aberrant centrosome...
