Title:  How do cells crawl?


Abstract: 

Cell movement is essential for embryonic development, wound healing,
and cell mediated immunity.  It is now well established that cell
migration depends on the polarized assembly of actin filaments at the
leading edge of a cell.  I will discuss recent work from my lab that
is directed toward characterizing the molecular machinery involved in
spatially controlled actin assembly.
