Join this Genetics, Development and Cell Biology seminar to hear Jiajie Diao, University of Cincinnati associate professor in cancer biology, discuss research into using optogenetics to dynamically regulate molecular activities using visible light to study and enhance cell function under disease or stress conditions. This approach offers a novel paradigm for dynamically modulating organelle function in live cells.
