About
Katherine Brimblecombe is a Postdoctoral Research Scientist at the Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Genetics (DPAG), University of Oxford, working within the Cragg Group. Her research focuses on dopamine signaling mechanisms in striatal sub-territories, particularly the dynamic relationship between calcium regulation and dopamine release in Parkinson's disease contexts.
- Department: DPAG, University of Oxford
- Techniques: Fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (FCV)
- Research Themes: Striatal dopamine heterogeneity, calcium channel regulation, Parkinson's disease mechanisms
Her recent work highlights L-type calcium channel interactions with dopamine release, α-synuclein/cholesterol convergence in transporter function, and GABA-dopamine interplay in parkinsonism models. Outreach activities include science communication for Parkinson's UK and primary school engagement during Science Week.
