Molecular Ion Channels Physiology

Nerve cells are close to the threshold that makes them fire rapid nerve impulses.

A high or low threshold can cause epilepsy or pain. We study a new mechanism by which different substances can raise or lower the threshold by opening or closing the voltage activated ion channels.
