Research Themes:
Single neuron levels including ion channels and gene products
The role of different subtypes of Ca2+ channel and K+ channels including KCa and KNa channels is being studied in different network neurons, and how they are modulated through different transmitters. The overall properties of different types of neurons with regard to Ca2+ and Na+ in the soma and dendrites and their effects on soma-dendritic function in relation to frequency regulation and plateau properties are in focus.
