Abstract
ABSTRACT First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Michelle Ly is first author on ‘ Integrin-based adhesions promote cell–cell junction and cytoskeletal remodelling to drive embryonic wound healing’, published in JCS. Michelle conducted the research described in this article while a MASc student in Rodrigo Fernandez-Gonzalez's lab at University of Toronto, Canada where she investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying cell migration and cell–extracellular matrix adhesion, and their roles in embryology and developmental processes. She is now a Research Assistant in the lab of Stewart Russel at the CReATe Fertility Centre, Toronto, Canada, working to pinpoint biomarkers associated with successful early embryo development.
