At the core of the axoneme lies the central pair (CP) of microtubules, which features a distinct distal tip structure critical for motility. However, the proteins stabilizing this region have remained largely unknown.</p> Mon, 14 Jul 2025 16:16:09 +0000 admin 2373 at /sbms Congratulations to Diego Loggia -PhD3 in Dr. Terry Hebert's lab, who has won a D2R Doctoral Scholar Award /sbms/channels/news/congratulations-diego-loggia-phd3-dr-terry-heberts-lab-who-has-won-d2r-doctoral-scholar-award-366873 <p>Super proud of Diego Loggia who just won a D2R Doctoral Scholar Award!
