Title :
Physical Aspects of Spindle Assembly
Abstract :
Spindles are arrays of microtubules that segregate chromosomes during cell division. It has been difficult to validate models of spindle assembly due to a lack of information on the organization and dynamics of microtubules in these structures. I will present our efforts to combine novel quantitative experiments and theory to understand spindle self-organization. Our results rule out previously proposed models of spindle assembly and suggest a novel mechanism by which the behaviors of microtubules give rise to the spindle.
