GBMC - Molecular and Cellular Biology Group

Coordinator:

Elsa Cardoso

This group focuses its activities on three research lines with high public health impact:
1. Mitosis and Cancer Biology research line is focused on functional aspects, both at cellular and molecular levels, of the kinetochores during chromosome segregation, and their implication in aneuploidy aetiology;
2. Human Integrative Immunology research line is focused on the role of external factors in the differentiation and the function of T cells, and their clinical implications in cancer and autoimmunity;
3. Microbiology and Biotechnology research line is focused on the study of fundamental physiology of non-pathogenic bacteria and their possible application to bioproduction and bioremediation.
