We are studying Ion Channel modulations and cellular plasticity in neuronal/cardiovascular membrane excitability. In particular, projects are aimed at studying the dynamic regulation of expression, trafficking, localization and functions of voltage-gated potassium channels by diverse cellular signal transduction pathways. Check Mohapatra & Trimmer, J Neurosci 2006; Park et al., Science 2006; and Mohapatra et al., J Neurosci 2008 to get a broad idea on the future projects. These projects will utilize animal models as well as primary cell cultures (neuronal and cardiac mycytes), biochemical, proteomic, cell biological, molecular biological, and electrophysiological techniques to answer critical quiestions.

Ph.D. with thorough training/experience in Ion Channel Biology (preferably electrophysiology) as well as basic knowledge in cell physiology are a must. Experience in confocal imaging and analyses will be an added advantage. APPLICANTS WITHOUT THE ABOVE-MENTIONED EXPERTISE/TRAINING WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS POSITION. Women and Physically Disabled applicants with the required training/experience will be given preference.

We have excellent tissue culture, biochemical, molecular/cell biological, imaging, and electrophysiological facilities. The University of Iowa, College of Medicine has excellent central core research facilities (Genomic, Proteomic, Microscopy & Imaging, and Gene-targeting cores) at the disposal for rapid advancement of research work.
