Cömert Kural's research uses advanced light microscopy, including super-resolution and deep-learning-enhanced imaging, to study how cells take in material from their surroundings through a process called clathrin-mediated endocytosis. This work explores how tiny protein coats form and grow on the cell surface, how this process relates to cell division and cancer cell migration, and how imaging and computational tools can improve the resolution of live-cell microscopy. The lab combines experimental cell biology with quantitative image analysis and machine learning to understand cellular transport mechanisms and their roles in disease.
