Aqua(glycero)porins
Integrated Analysis of Aquaporin Structure and Function
Marie Curie Research Training NetworkThe overall goal of this project is to provide high-level training to early-stage researchers and experienced researchers in integrated analysis of cell physiology by performing interdisciplinary analyses of the role, structure, function and regulation of aquaporins, thereby advancing this field and contribute to structuring the area within Europe.
This Research training network will combine concepts and techniques from molecular cell biology; physiology and systems biology of cell, tissue and animal models; clinical studies; model organisms; protein production, purification and crystallisation; structural biology by atomic force microscopy, electron crystallography and X-ray crystallography; computational biology via molecular dynamics simulation and mathematical modelling; rational molecular design, organic chemistry and combinatorial chemistry.
