Lynch lab group PhD projects

Project 1: Investigating the mechanism by which hereditary mutations to the potassium/chloride co-transporter, KCC2, cause epilepsy.

Project 2: Discovering new drugs that control malaria-transmitting Anopheles mosquitos by targeting their glutamate-gated chloride channels.

Project 3: Discovering new drugs for treating chronic inflammatory pain by targeting alpha3 glycine receptors.

Project 4: Molecular mechanisms regulating synaptic clustering of alpha5-containing GABA-A receptors.
