Dr. Andy N Spencer  (b. ----, d. ----)

Prev  | Next )
POSITION(S) / JOB TITLE(S):
Professor
AREAS OF EXPERTISE:
Our group is interested in the evolution of the nervous system in early metazoans with particular emphasis on hydrozoan jellyfish. We use a multidisciplinary approach to understanding the early evolution of the basic molecular and physiological building blocks of nervous systems. At present we are determining the structure and functional significance of "primitive" voltage-gated ion channels (K+, Na+, Ca++) using both electrophysiological and molecular biological techniques including: primary neuronal culture, current and voltage-clamp, oocyte expression assays, cloning by PCR, in situ hybridization. Other projects include ion channel modulation by transmitters and development of excitable cell lineages in cnidarians.
