1. Patch-clamp studies of the GABAA receptor using microfluidic methods
Abstract : Ion channels are membrane proteins that passively transport ions. When activated, conformational changes within the protein lead to opening of a channel pore, and the flow of ions causes a change in the membrane potential. This is the fundamental process behind the generation and transduction of nerve impulses. READ MORE

2. Studies of ligand- and temperature-gated ion channels using microfluidic methods
Abstract : This thesis describes the studies of the GABAA receptor, a ligand-gated ion channel, and the ligand- and temperature-gated ion channel TRPV1. The desensitization behavior of both of these proteins has been studied for different conditions, using a microfluidic device for superfusion. READ MORE
