Marin Barisic

Marin Barisic is an Associate Professor at the University of Copenhagen's Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, where he is affiliated with the Morphogenesis and Differentiation Program. His research focuses on fundamental mechanisms of cell biology, particularly regulation of mitosis, cytoskeletal dynamics, and cell migration. With laboratories located at both Strandboulevarden and Blegdamsvej campuses, he maintains active research operations in Copenhagen.

Barisic's research explores critical cellular processes including:

• Kinetochore-microtubule interactions during chromosome segregation
• Tubulin modification mechanisms in cell polarization
• Mitotic checkpoint signaling pathways
• Aurora kinase regulation in error correction
• Microtubule detyrosination in directed cell migration

His work integrates biochemical, molecular, and cell biological approaches to study these fundamental processes.

Analysis of his recent publications (2023-2025) reveals a consistent focus on mitotic regulation mechanisms, with particular emphasis on kinetochore dynamics, microtubule modifications, and kinase signaling pathways. His work frequently appears in high-impact journals including Nature Communications, EMBO Journal, and PNAS, demonstrating significant contributions to understanding cell division mechanics and migration.
