Project
Molecular and cellular mechanisms of electrical excitability
The aim of the network is to gain further understanding of the specific mechanisms underlying normal and abnormal excitability in the heart and central nervous system. We will investigate at the tissue, cellular and molecular level the expression, function and regulation of ion channels, transporters and ionotropic receptors.
