Research Focus:
Neurophysiology, neurodevelopment, and neurodegenerative diseases
- One focus is neural network of cognitive functions, motor control and motor learning, synaptic plasticity and learning/memory, treatment strategies for neurogenerative diseases.
- Other focuses include glial cell physiology/pathophysiology and neural mechanisms of auditory perception. Members are also interested in inflammatory eye disease.
Cardiovascular function, metabolic diseases, cellular signaling
- One focus is macrophage, vascular inflammation and endothelial cell dysfunction and animal models for cardio-metabolic disorder. Members are also interested in ion channels and calcium signaling in the cardiovascular system.
- Other focuses are adipocyte remodelling, human pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes and disease modelling, development of anti-obesity and anti-diabetic drugs, and pathogenicity of zoonotic viruses in human.
