Profile

Project title: Functional analyses of centromere proteins in S. pombe

Summary: My PhD project is aimed at exploring the molecular details of how chromosome segregation is executed with effective interactions involving a number of proteins in eukaryotic systems. However, my special focus will be on the CCAN kinetochore protein complex which is required for the accurate separation of chromosomes during cell division via its direct connection with the centromere and spindle microtubules.
