Cytoskeleton Club
The I2BC Cytoskeleton Club
The Cytoskeleton Club aims at gathering the I2BC cytoskeleton community in order to meet, present informal talks and exchange ideas and knowledge.
The club is open to anyone interested in the field. More than half of the seminars are presented by external speakers allowing to connect researchers all around France and outside.
We meet once a month, every second Friday at 11:00 CET on the I2BC campus in Gif-sur-Yvette.
Keen to receive regular reminders or interested in sharing your research and getting feedback from the club members, subscribe to the “CytoskeletonClub” mailing-list. In exchange for this registration, you will be called to present at one of our monthly meetings
