10. Putting the Stopwatch on Cell Division and Cell Motility http://cmgm.stanford.edu/theriot/movies.htmhttp://cmgm.stanford.edu/theriot/movies.htm - the place to be! These movies allow for an estimate of the rate of actin polymerization. Show movies of cell division - problem often with the movies is no timer showing how long the video lasts in real time units. The concept is to estimate the rate of microtubule polymerization.
