Abstract

To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the way that different ion channels operate, using the combination of molecular biology, classic electrophysiology, fluorometry, kinetic modeling, molecular modeling, quantum mechanics and mathematical modeling, and their association with some disseases like cancer, asthma and deafness. Research Lines: Ion channel biophysics Channelopathies (Cancer, deafness, asthma) Physiology (Secretion) Computational modeling (Molecular modeling, kinetic modeling, molecular dynamics and quantum mechanics) Mathematical modeling (associated to the ion channel behaviour) We have openings for PhD students with backgrounds in Biochemistry, Biology, Mathematics and Physics.
