PhD Research Project Type/Funding

Protein sensitivity of membrane curvature

Masaryk University
CEITEC

Prof R Vácha

Application Deadline: 3 February 2019

The control of biological membrane shape and composition is vital to eukaryotic life. The shape is so specific that it allows us to recognize various organelles in the cell.
