A little guide for advanced search:

  • Tip 1. You can use quotes "" to search for an exact expression.
    Example: "cell division"
  • Tip 2. You can use + symbol to restrict results containing all words.
    Example: +cell +stem
  • Tip 3. You can use + and - symbols to force inclusion or exclusion of specific words.
    Example: +cell -stem

• Channel Receptors

About

I was trained as a chemist and did my PhD (Paris) and post-doctoral fellowship (Brighton) in organic synthesis. He then joined the Pasteur Institute as a CNRS researcher to work on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, and contributed to the discovery of bacterial homologues of these neurotransmitter receptors. In 2008, I created a research group, to decipher the allosteric mechanisms of bacterial and eukaryotic channel receptors by combining structural, electrophysiological and fluorescence approaches.
