报告人简介：
Dr. Jonathan Higgins works on the mechanisms that control chromosome segregation during cell division. Accurate segregation requires dramatic changes in chromatin structure and microtubule organization that are crucial to prevent genome instability that can contribute to cancer and cause birth defects. Agents that target mitosis hold promise as anti-cancer therapies. His work includes efforts both to understand the basic biology of mitosis and to develop anti-mitotic small molecules that might find both research and clinical use.
