Abstract

Ana-Maria Lennon-Dumenil is a young group leader at the Institut Curie in Paris and is interested in the cell biology of antigen-presenting cells (see recent publications below).

Ana-Maria will have some time for discussion after her talk. If you are interested in meeting her could you please send an email to Marion Espeli (me301@cam.ac.uk)?
