Professional Summary:
Research in my lab focuses on ion channels. I am interested in how interventions such as ancillary subunits, mutations, drugs, and environmental changes affect the structure-function relationship, and ultimately how this affects cellular electrical activity.
We do this using a combination of techniques and approaches including 2 electrode clamp to study heterologously expressed channels, whole cell clamp to record currents in the native cell, and mathematical modelling to understand and interpret results.
