Research

The Centre for Subcellular Biology and Signalling will focus on building a dynamic and comprehensive understanding on how organelles and other subcellular structures are organised and function in health and disease. In recent years have seen a tremendous increase in understanding cellular functions, in part due to the technical advances in super-resolution microscopy and genome editing. The centre will support research that systematically explores how the cell self-organizes to maintain cellular health using multidisciplinary approaches, including super-resolution imaging, mechanobiology, biomedical informatics, protein modelling, proteomics and molecular biology. We aim to inspire people push the boundaries of human knowledge of microscopic world, and fully devoted to connecting this knowledge to clinical need. Centre members have a shared research interests in function and interplay of various subcellular structures, in particular mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, cytoskeleton and the centrosome and have strong expertise in C. elegans as an in vivo model.
