Reducing Translational Risk by Interpreting Ion Channel Pharmacology in Human Nociceptors
8:45 am
- Revealing how ion channel behavior in human nociceptors differs from animal models and recombinant systems used in early discovery
- Interpreting state dependent and activity dependent pharmacology to avoid false confidence from simplified assay readouts
- Improving early development decisions by aligning electrophysiology data with native human neuronal function
