Interests

I study oligodendrocyte precursor cell membrane properties, ion channels and neurotransmitter receptors. I focus on the temporal and regional diversity in these properties, and how this might underlie the capacity of oligodendrocyte precursors cells to differentiate into myelinating oligodendrocytes during development or following demyelinating lesions.
