Sandrine Etienne-Manneville focuses her research on cell migration and cell polarity. Cellular migration plays a key role in both developing organisms and adults ones, where it is involved in the immune response, scar tissue formation, or the dissemination of tumor cells. Cell polarity is fundamental for migration both for its initiation and its direction. Sandrine Etienne-Manneville is aiming at deciphering the extra and intracellular signals controlling cell polarity and migration and how they are altered in tumor cells.
