Ion Channels in Cellular Pathophysiology Part A

LucianaAndrade is at Federal University de Minas Gerais, Brazil Christopher Kushmerick is a biophysicist and neurophysiologist specialized in cellular electrophysiology and synaptic transmission. He currently serves as a Professor of Pharmacology in the Department of Physiology at the Federal University of Sergipe (UFS) in Brazil, having previously held a long-term professorship at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG). His research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of neurotransmitter release and the modulation of ion channels. Key areas of investigation include short-term synaptic plasticity and neuromodulation by G-protein coupled receptors.
