Leica Microsystems and LabRoots have organized a free web-seminar in
September that may be of interest to you:

Advances in Live Cell Imaging

Date:  15th September 2015
Time:  11am U.S. Eastern Time
Duration:  60 minutes
http://labroots.com/webinar/id/135

Presenter:
Jonathan Jones, PhD
Director and Professor, School of Molecular Biosciences, Washington State
University

Skin Cell Motility: Integrins Lead the Way
You will learn about efforts to dissect mechanisms that underlie the
directed migration of epidermal keratinocytes as they populate wounds or
in cancer.

Learning outcomes:
- The structure and function of matrix adhesion sites (focal contacts and
hemidesmosomes) in skin cells (keratinocytes) in  vivo and in vitro.
- The structural and signaling roles of complexes of hemidesmosome
proteins in both adhesion and migration of keratinocytes.
- The interplay of focal contacts and hemidesmosome protein complexes in
the generation of traction forces needed to move a keratinocyte forward.

Very best regards,
