DESCRIPTION:Centrioles/basal bodies are microtubule-based structures that 
 form centrosomes\, a major microtubule organising center\, and template th
 e formation of the cilium\, which is important for signalling and motility
 . While these structures were described more than a century ago\, due to t
 heir small size\, only recently tools became available to investigate them
  in different contexts. I will discuss efforts from our laboratory towards
  decoding the principles that regulate the assembly and maintenance of the
 se structures\, as well as their variations observed at different scales a
 nd contexts\,  in different tissues\, in disease and evolution.
