Project summary

During his Fellowship, Anthony will be studying the action of 'motor proteins' – specialised proteins that travel inside cells and help them organise their contents, move, divide and respond to signals. He is based primarily in the laboratory of Dr Samara Reck-Peterson at Harvard Medical School, sponsored by Professor Peter Knight and Dr Stan Burgess at the University of Leeds and mentored by Professor James Sellers at the NIH.
