Making Cells Visible

Within a transdisciplinary approach between cell biology, biochemistry and genetics, Isabelle Sagot, biologist at the CNRS, studies the behaviour of yeast cells using fluorescent microscopy.
This process became feasible with the discovery of GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein) which gives its fluorescent green color to jellyfish.
This study also makes it possible to highlight the anarchic division of symptomatic cancer cells.

CNRS Images,

Our work is guided by the way scientists question the world around them and we translate their research into images to help people to understand the world better and to awaken their curiosity and wonderment.
