  • Voltage Gated Sodium Channels

    Edited by Peter C. Ruben ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    A number of techniques to study ion channels have been developed since the electrical basis of excitability was first discovered. Ion channel biophysicists have at their disposal a rich and ever-growing array of instruments and reagents to explore the biophysical and structural basis of sodium channel behavior. Armed with these tools, researchers have made increasingly dramatic discoveries about ... Read more

  • Cardiovascular Pharmacogenetics

    Edited by Martin R. Wilkins ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The Human Genome Project was sold to the general public largely on the basis that a complete picture of the structure of human DNA would lead to new and better medicines. These medicines would be better because they would be tailored to individual patients, maximising the chances of a therapeutic response and mi nimising the risks of an adverse event. Taking the idea further, pundits have pre ... Read more
