Synaptic function

As the brain relies on complex chemical and electrical signalling, QBI neuroscientists are exploring the electrophysiological properties of neurons. In particular, QBI scientists are examining synaptic transmission, synaptic plasticity and studying the ion channels that regulate neuronal excitability.

• Ligand-gated ion channel receptors (Lynch)
• Molecular mechanisms of senses and synapses (Claudianos)
• Neuronal trafficking (Meunier)
• Synaptic integration in neural networks (Williams)
