Central versus peripheral neural control mechanisms in man: Inputs and outputs
Control of many body systems depends on integration of nervous signals generated from within and outside the central nervous system.
Transverse tubules in the heart: Normal physiology and involvement in disease

Atomic structures and molecular mechanisms of voltage-gated and ligand-gated ion channels
Voltage- and ligand-gated ion channels are key players in electrical signal transduction in nerves and muscles.
Voltage-gated calcium channels are essential for communication between brain cells. Here we will explore novel ideas about delivery of calcium channels to their site of action, their role in pain pathways and in hearing, and what happens when they are

Neurotransmitter transporters: Impact on nerve cell excitability and function
Transporter proteins in brain cells clearance neurotransmitter excess during synaptic transmission. This is coupled with ion transport, and therefore are electrogenic. Could transporters provide routes to electrical signalling as well as channels?
