This course aims to introduce the techniques used in the analysis of epithelial mesenchymal transition, a precursor to metastasis. During this one-week workshop, you will analyse the effect of inhibition of actin cytoskeleton regulators on epithelial mesenchymal transition using different molecular and cell biology experimental techniques. You will gain better insight into how scientific hypotheses are formulated based on existing data and how experiments are designed to test these hypotheses. You will appreciate the role of actin cytoskeleton in many cellular processes such as cell migration during metastasis. You will also develop skills in data acquisition and analysis, and scientific communication in terms of oral presentation and report writing.
