This talk will serve as an introduction to ion channels, the little machines in neuronal membranes that generate and regulate their electrical activity. It will also discuss how ion channels can be targeted by drugs for new treatments for pain and epilepsy.

Free and open to the public. Coffee and snacks will be served. We encourage all those who are able to join us in-person! However, if you can’t attend in person, a Zoom link will be provided upon registration.

A small group lunch with the speaker will follow this event. This lunch will be open to Harvard students, fellows, and research assistants. Please indicate on the registration form if you would like request a spot.
