to foster Latin-American and other not well developed countries students into
Molecular and Cell Biology research.
The present course is based mostly in two different subject, a) calcium
homeostasis and the role of calcium as a second messenger, and b) cell
Motility, molecular motors and intracellular transport. The course will
consist in a practical training part and a theoretical part. The
