Workshop 5: Final phase
1 week; target groups: all ESRs/beneficiaries and partner organisations and scientific/industrial community (up to 60 participant)
This workshop is especially designed as an outreach project to present and discuss results of the ETN with the international community. It consists of an international 3-day conference inviting internationally renowned speakers with a satellite symposium on instrumentation for 1 day, and a 1-day programme on career development with a match-making opportunity for future employers of the private and academic sectors. Specific aspects within InCeM's scope to be addressed include the following:
- International conference: The major topic will be "Integrating experiment and theory to understand and predict cell migration" with presentations by ESRs, project members and scientists invited by the ESRs and subsequent discussion rounds of speakers and ESRs.
- New achievements in product development and instrumentation for analysing and manipulating cell migration.
- Impact of InCeM's results and developments for biomedical and biotechnological applications.
- Career development: Researchers who have been trained in interdisciplinary research and are pursuing successful careers in academia, industry, authorities, or consulting firms will be invited to share their experience and give practical advice.
- Entrepreneurship and business basics.
- Industrial life sciences research.

Migrating primary keratinocyte with labelled cell adhesions. Based on a fine tuned regulation adhesion structures are continuously formed, modified and finally disassembled.
Primary keratinocytes apply traction forces upon migration. Using fluorescent fusion proteins (GFP-vinculin), adhesion structures can be visualized. Those sites are used by the cell for cell force transmission to the underlying substrate. In case those substrates are elastic, forces cause deformation fields that can be visualized using marker particles.
