First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Anthony Rossi is joint first author on ‘Phosphoregulation of the cytokinetic protein Fic1 contributes to fission yeast growth polarity establishment’, published in JCS. Anthony is a PhD student in the lab of Kathleen L. Gould at Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN, USA, investigating how cytokinetic components coordinate with each other to achieve cytokinesis.
