Together these permit dynamic quantification of protein localization, protein-protein interactions and protein activity while cells are carrying out a function of interest. For us the interesting processes are: cell division, cell motility and flow sensing. To read more see the Shah Lab wiki or my research description on the HMS Systems Biology faculty page.
