Bay Area Cytoskeleton Symposium 2020

Join us for the third annual instalment of the Bay Area Cytoskeleton Symposium September 14-18 (2hr/day). We aim to bring together the many groups near the Bay Area that study the cytoskeleton and their diverse roles in a wide range of cellular processes. The meeting is sponsored by Stanford University in partnership with the ASCB.
