Laboratory
The Basto Lab (https://curie.fr/equipe/basto) investigates the fundamental mechanisms that ensure accurate cell division and tissue homeostasis, and how their disruption contributes to disease. Our research combines cell biology, genetics, developmental biology, advanced microscopy, and quantitative approaches to understand how centrosomes, the cytoskeleton, and cell division are regulated across different biological contexts. We use a multidisciplinary approach and a diverse range of experimental models, including cultured mammalian cells, Drosophila melanogaster, and mouse models, allowing us to address biological questions from molecules to whole organisms. The laboratory is part of Institut Curie, an internationally recognized research center at the forefront of cancer, cell, and developmental biology, offering access to outstanding core facilities.
