ProjectPhysiological and pathophysiological implications of the TRAAK channel.
About
Description:
The laboratory is interested in potassium channels of the two-pore channel family, and more recently in their neuronal and physiological functions.
This thesis project explores the physiological involvement of the TRAAK channel (Twik-Related Arachidonic Acid activated K+ channel) using an animal model of a neurodevelopmental syndrome called FHEIG.
Techniques used:
- RNAscope
- Immunofluorescence
- Electrophysiology
- Behavior
