Research

The goal of my laboratory is to understand the mechanism of the regulation of somatosensory ion channels activated by thermal and mechanical stimuli. We study them at the molecular, cellular and organism level. Our goal is to further the understanding of the fascinating biology of somatosensation, which we believe will ultimately lead to the development of better pain medications with fewer, and less severe side effects.
