Our research focuses on the cellular mechanism of atrial fibrillation (AF), which is the most common cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice that can precipitate heart failure, stroke and even death.…
Our work Technology Publications Funding Our team Contact Many bodily functions are based on the force and displacement generated by contraction of muscles. The switch from rest to contraction and bac…
Our work Technology Publications Funding Our team Contact My research is focused on the control mechanisms of intracellular Ca2+ release in excitable cells. Specifically, my lab is interested on defin…
The research of Thomas R. Shannon explores the local control of excitation-contraction coupling in excitable cells. These control mechanisms are fundamental to many cellular phenomena and are, thus, o…
The focus of my research is on how students learn physiology and how teachers can best help students learn. What does it mean to "understand" physiology? What are the obstacles to students a…
This lab has three main focuses, both studied by modeling and simulations. Calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) in cardiac skeletal muscle During heart muscle contraction, Ca2+ is released using the…
