Keith E. Mostov

Keith E. Mostov is a respected scientist specializing in cell biology, particularly how cells form and organize themselves into tissues. His research focuses on understanding how cells develop polarity—meaning how they have distinct 'front' and 'back' parts—which is essential for proper function and structure in organs. Mostov's work helps explain critical processes like tissue development, wound healing, and how disruptions can lead diseases such as cancer. Through his studies, he has contributed valuable insights into cell behavior and the mechanisms that maintain healthy tissue architecture.
