The aim of the Migration, Invasion and Targeting (MIC) team is to identify the mechanisms of cell migration and invasion in the context of melanoma. In particular, their project aims to characterise the direct interactions of FAK (focal adhesion kinase) and its homologue Pyk2 (proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2) with their protein partners, with a particular interest in the mechanisms involved in the morphological changes of organelles at the origin of cancer initiation and progression.
