How do I use this calendar?

You can click on an event to display further information about it.

The toolbar above the calendar has buttons to view different events. Use the left and right arrow icons to view events in the past and future. The button inbetween returns you to today's view. The button to the right of this shows a mini-calendar to let you quickly jump to any date.

The dropdown box on the right allows you to see a different view of the calendar, such as an agenda or a termly view.

If this calendar has tags, you can use the labelled checkboxes at the top of the page to select just the tags you wish to view, and then click "Show selected". The calendar will be redisplayed with just the events related to these tags, making it easier to find what you're looking for.

Virtual BMS Seminar: Drosophila macrophages: the busy bees of fly development, Dr Brian Stramer, Randall Division of Cell and Molecular Biophysics, Kings College London
via Zoom

Abstract: Our laboratory exploits Drosophila hemocytes as an in vivo model to address the role and regulation of cell migration during animal development. These cells can be live imaged during their developmental dispersal at an unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution; this has allowed us to develop image analysis techniques to dissect the subcellular dynamics of their migratory behaviours along with their functions during embryogenesis. In this seminar I will discuss recent work that reveals the critical role of actin flows in coordinating the migratory process. Additionally, I will highlight the intriguing function that hemocytes play during Drosophila development: this macrophage population is surprisingly essential for the production and localised deposition of extracellular matrix within the embryo.
