Roberta Gualdani - Principal Investigator
My research project involves looking for recurrent TRP ion channel mutations in patients suffering from severe chronic pain, in order to understand whether there is a genetic predisposition to the development of the pain conditions, and to develop personalized therapies to normalize the activity of the mutant channels. To this end, I combine the most advanced state-of-the-art techniques for the biophysical and pharmacological study of ion channels, including electrophysiology, fluorescence spectroscopy, biochemistry, structural modelling. I have also a wide experience in ion channel drug discovery and in the development of genetically modified mouse models for in vivo experiments.
