Note:
For decades, the Xenopus model system has served as a platform for fundamental discoveries in cell and developmental biology, ranging from cell cycle regulation, to the roles of paracrine factors in embryonic pattern formation and cell fate specification, to the many functions of cilia in development. Xenopus offers a unique set of strengths that complement those of other vertebrate systems, such as mouse, zebrafish, and chick, and it is well-suited to both mechanistic and functional analyses. The biannual International Xenopus conference has anchored the Xenopus community facilitating the integration of key findings and emerging technologies across diverse fields. This proposal requests support for the 19th International Xenopus Conference to provide travel awards for students, postdoctoral researchers, and faculty from primarily undergraduate institutions (PUI).
