Funded Activity Summary

How do extracellular vesicles fuse with cells to deliver messages? Aims: This project aims to investigate how tiny packages released by all cells in the human body, called extracellular vesicles, deliver messages into neighbouring cells facilitating cell-to-cell communication. Significance: This project expects to generate key knowledge in the area of cell-to-cell communication by using innovative molecular biology approaches and cutting-edge microscopy and biophysical techniques. Expected outcomes: Expected outcomes include high resolution details of which molecules are packaged onto extracellular vesicles and how they are delivered into recipient cells. Benefits: This project should contribute significantly to understanding extracellular vesicle function and guide their eventual use as therapeutics.
