How cells sense their environment to build an organ: adhesion proteins in kidney development

  Research Group: Division of Cell Matrix Biology and Regenerative Medicine
Every organ in our body is built by cells that constantly sense and respond to their surroundings. Cells attach to the extracellular matrix (ECM), the network of proteins that surrounds them, through specialised adhesion sites that link the outside of the cell to its internal cytoskeleton.
