As to the Presenter
 
Presentation Title：Neuronal morphology and  molecular motors
 
Abstract：The neuron, a primary cell in the brain, is a large and specialized cell. Human neurons, for instance, have a 1-meter-long cellular extension known as the axon. To maintain neuronal morphology, the components of the axon are actively transported within the axon through a process called axonal transport, which is driven by the cytoskeleton and motor proteins.
