Targeting actin protrusions
PREP2022-000642 funded by MICIU/EI/10.13039/5011000110033 and FSE+
This is a National Funding Program from the Spanish Government to support a 4-year fellowship for a PhD Student - Irene Olivas Cano - who will perform her PhD in our lab at the CIPF.
Flipping the coin: 'Actin' for good - Targeting actin protrusion in invasion (FLIP-ACTIN)
Sponsor:

PID2022 - 140899NB - I00
This is a National Funding Program from the Spanish Government. Thanks to this funding, our Group at the CIPF in Valencia can start a new research Project related to how to stop cancer Cell invasion and further investigate mechanisms related to cell migration and invasion linked to metabolism. This funding includes support for a Research Assistant and a 4-year fellowship for a PhD Student!
