The Ion Channels and Disease laboratory has a keen interest in researching the fundamental basis of epilepsy.
This research includes identifying the genes involved in inherited forms of the disease and studying how they alter brain function to cause epilepsy or “Epileptogenesis”.
Investigating developmental biology and epilepsy, looking at the genomic response of the brain in mouse models of human familial epilepsy and identification of therapeutics opportunities to treat epilepsy.
“The human brain must continue to frame the problems for the electronic machine to solve.”
