Ion channel signalling in cancer cells

Our cells constantly sense and transport ions present in their environment. From embryonic development to epilepsy to heart disease to cancer, our cells’ ability to respond to changes in the ionic microenvironment is essential for healthy ageing. Read more

Ion channel regulation in models of neurodegeneration

Ion channels are important regulators of cellular physiology. There is now growing awareness that these proteins are invovled in pathological states, with relation to neurodegeneration voltage-gated potassium and voltage-gated calicum channels have been implicated. Read more

CaVX – Calcium channels in excitable cells

Students with a keen interest in neuroscience and ion channel research are invited to apply for one of several vacant PhD positions available within the international PhD program CavX – Calcium channels in excitable cells. Read more

Evaluation of cardiac safety features of over-the-counter medications

It is now well-established that a number of prescription medications are linked to a low, but significant risk of alterations to the QT interval of the electrocardiogram and with an associated dangerous arrhythmia called torsades de pointes. Read more

Natural toxins and their synthetic analogues as tools to study ion channels and as potential drugs and pesticides

The project will use a combination of electrophysiological techniques such as voltage-clamp and patch-clamp with molecular biology and protein expression to understand how natural toxins and their synthetic analogues act on ion channels in the nervous system. Read more

SELF-FUNDING MSc BY RESEARCH PROJECT: Cystic fibrosis: restoring ion transport with small molecules

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by dysfunction of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), a unique ATP-binding cassette transporter that functions as an ATP-gated anion channel, playing a pivotal role in salt and water movement across epithelial tissues (1). Read more

Biophysics of mechanotransduction by hair cells

The laboratory of Auditory Neuroscience and Biophysics (. www.kozlovlab.com. ) led by Dr Andriy Kozlov at the Department of Bioengineering, Imperial College London, invites applications for a fully funded PhD position, starting in October 2023 or soon thereafter. Read more

Experimental Discovery of New Inorganic Materials with Unique Crystal Structures

The properties of inorganic materials are determined by their crystal structures, and there are often a select few structural families which dominate the application areas for particular properties which can limit performance development. Read more
