British Society for Cell Biology award winner

Liam Cheeseman

Liam Cheeseman, a second year PhD student in the Institute of Translational Medicine, has won the 2012 British Society for Cell Biology Young Cell Biologist of the Year award.

He received the prize at the joint meeting of the British Society for Cell Biology, the British Society for Developmental Biology and the Japanese Society for Developmental Biologists for his work on ‘rapid, induced removal of TACC3/ch-TOG/clathrin from meta phase spindles defines new roles for microtubule crosslinkers in spindle assembly and function.’

Awarded to a PhD student who has not yet received a degree and who is the first author and presenter of a poster at the joint meeting, Liam will receive an expense-paid trip to the American Society for Cell Biology Annual Meeting in San Francisco.
