Imaging the molecular processes of cell division across scale
Speaker: Jan Ellenberg, SciLifeLab Director
Jan Ellenberg is distinguished for many contributions to the cell biology and imaging field. The majority of these were made at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) where he is Senior Scientist and Head of the Cell Biology and Biophysics Unit. His major research contributions cover several aspects of the cell division cycle and nuclear organization, including systematic analysis of mitosis, nuclear pore complex structure and assembly, as well as chromatin organization and formation and segregation of mitotic and meiotic chromosomes. Since July 2024, Professor Ellenberg is appointed Director of SciLifeLab.
His goal has been to obtain structural and functional measures of the required molecular machinery inside cells using quantitative 4D imaging, single molecule spectroscopy, as well as light sheet and super-resolution microscopy, which his group is constantly developing and automating to address all molecular components comprehensively.
