Brief description His research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of synaptic transmission in the nervous system to: a) understand the basic science of nerve communication and b) develop drugs to control diseases of nerve terminals like epilepsy. The main focus is on proteins called the dynamins, which are self-assembling molecular machines acting in many intracellular functions. There are three dynamin genes: dynI, II and III with diverse functions in the different parts of the body.
