Biography

I am a cellular neuroscientist working on the regulation of ion channels by signalling pathways and bacterial and fungal toxins. I use a range of electrophysiological and microfluorimetric techniques. I am Head of the Department of Neuroscience Education and Education Lead for the Division of Neuroscience at the Institute for Psychology, Psychiatry and Neuroscience, King's College London.
