I am extremely happy to announce that Dr. Isabel Palacios will be coming to teach the first Module of the course. Dr. Isabel Palacios is a Royal Society Research Fellow at the Department of Zoology in the University of Cambridge, where she teaches various graduate courses. Her main research focus is on the function of motor proteins in establishing cell polarities.
