* My research activities focused on three main topics:
----------------------------------------------------
-Molecular mechanism of neurotransmitter (Ach & excitatory amino acid) release, -Neuronal and glial modulation of neurotransmission,
-Regulation of ion channels function (ligand-gated channels, VDCC, KATP, etc)
using neurochemical, molecular biology and electrophysiology methods.
* Other topics were also addressed during my research acitivities, such as:
---------------------------------------------------------------
-Stem-cell neuronal differentiation,
-Ion-channel function of TNF lectin_like domain &
-t-Type VDCC & Ischemia
-Glutamate uptake & Parkinson disease
-Zinc control of KATP & insulin secretion (linked to hyperinsulism or diabetes)
* In addition to my teaching activities at Geneva Medical Faculty, I also
