elcome to the web site for the Wadsworth lab at the University of Massachusetts. In the lab, we study cell division, including both the assembly of the mitotic spindle and cytokinesis, the process by which the cell is divided into two daughters following chromosome motion. Use the links at the left to find information about current research in the lab and to visit our movie collection.
