“Chromosome Function and Maintenance – Propagating Life” (Prof. Camilla BJÖRKEGREN)

Zoom Webinar (Register here)

Prof. Björkegren’s research focuses on the helical nature of DNA. The lecture will give a background to this analysis, presenting the structure and function of chromosomal DNA and how these features influence cellular growth. This will set the stage for a final discussion on how and if the organization of the hereditary material into a double stranded helix shapes the identity and development of our cells.
