#introduction
Hello, this is Jose M de Pereda and I run a research group at the Center for Cancer Research in #Salamanca (Spain) (#CSIC #USAL).
We study the structural and mechanistic basis of #integrin based #CellAdhesion complexes (mostly #Hemidesmosomes) and of #Rap1 signaling. Knowing in detail how these molecular systems work is essential to understand how they are altered in diseases.
We do multidisciplinary research: #StructuralBiology #Biochemistry, #Biophysics and a bit of #CellBiology
