The main goal of the Cell Physiology MiLab is to understand the molecular mechanisms that regulate the physiological and pathological mechanisms of cardiac and neuronal excitability using different models ranging from isolated cells to the whole organism. We also developed innovative approaches based on human patient-derived  induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) or mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Techniques used include: electrophysiology, molecular biology, biochemistry, immunofluorescence, cell sorting.
