The reduction of NMDA receptor Ca2+ permeability as a strategyto lower neuronal vulnerability to excitotoxicity

id="offer-description" class="ecl-u-type-heading-2 ecl-u-mt-none ecl-u-mb-l">Offer Description The scientific activities within the scope of this project will involve designing and implementing experiments to measure the Ca²⁺ permeability of human NMDA-type glutamate receptors expressed in heterologous systems under different conditions and in the presence of various pharmacological modulators. The methods employed will include patch-clamp electrophysiological recording techniques combined with time-resolved digital fluorescence microscopy, allowing simultaneous monitoring of Ca²⁺ inward currents and changes in intracellular free Ca²⁺ concentration.
