Axon outgrowth and guidance to the proper target requires the coordination of filamentous (F)-actin
and microtubules (MTs), the dynamic cytoskeletal polymers that promote shape …

Filopodia are actin-based structures composed of parallel bundles of actin filaments and
various actin-associated proteins, and they play important roles in cell-cell signaling, guidance …

Proper patterning of the nervous system requires that developing axons find appropriate
postsynaptic partners; this entails microns to meters of extension through an extracellular milieu …

Cell migration initiates by extension of the actin cytoskeleton at the leading edge. Computational
analysis of fluorescent speckle microscopy movies of migrating epithelial cells revealed …

Cells exhibit a biphasic migration-velocity response to increasing adhesion strength, with
fast migration occurring at intermediate extracellular matrix (ECM) concentration and slow …

Although an underrepresentation of women in educational administration persists, the reasons
for the disparity have changed over the past 30 years. This book presents findings of a …

The actin cytoskeleton is locally regulated for functional specializations for cell motility.
Using quantitative fluorescent speckle microscopy (qFSM) of migrating epithelial cells, we …

Neurons establish their unique morphology by elaborating multiple neurites that subsequently
form axons and dendrites. Neurite initiation entails significant surface area expansion, …
