Collaborative visit to Physico-Chimie 'Curie' at the Curie Institute

居里研究所世界著名的物理-化学实验室“居里”提供了一个环境，生物学家和物理学家使用各种技术从理论和实验上研究支撑细胞规模生物学的物理原理。一个特别感兴趣的领域是细胞骨架，它为真核细胞提供机械支持，并帮助细胞履行其生物学功能。此行将导致对细胞细胞骨架的两个互补的理论描述的综合，以及一个实验和理论工作相结合的计划，将用于测试这些理论并为它们的改进提供方向。

The world famous laboratory Physico-Chimie 'Curie'at the Curie Institute provides an environment where the physical principles that underpin biology at thescale of the cell are studied using a variety of techniques, boththeoretically and experimentally by biologists and physicists. A particular area of interest is the cytoskeleton which provides eukariotic cells with mechanical support andhelps the cells to perform their biological functions. This trip will lead to a synthesis of two complementary theoretical descriptions of the cell cytoskeleton and to a program of combined experimental and theoretical work which will be used to test these theories and provide directions for their improvements.
