Goals and Projects
The long-term goal of research in this laboratory is to contribute to our understanding of fungal cell development - especially the areas of tip growth and septation.Our principal current projects focus on the roles played by Protein Kinase C (PKC) and cytoskeletal proteins during polarized cell growth and cytokinesis in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans.
