معرفی
Prof. Dr. Patricia Hidalgo leads the Calcium Channel Biology research group at Forschungszentrum Jülich's Institute of Biological Information Processing (IBI-1). Her work focuses on voltage-activated calcium channels' functional regulation and cellular impacts, combining molecular biology, proteomics, electrophysiology, and advanced microscopy techniques.
Key research areas include:
- Channel subunit interactions and post-translational modifications
- Non-ionic functions of calcium channels
- Defects in cardiac and neurological disorders
- Role of Cavβ subunits in hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes
Current projects investigate calcium channel roles in breast cancer, cardiac fibrosis, and novel modulators from snake venom. Her lab uses multidisciplinary approaches including quantitative proteomics and live-cell imaging.
Team members include Dr. Markus Eicheldinger, Nadine Jordan, and Erick Miranda Laferte. Contact details: Building 15.21/Rm 2035, +49 2461/61-84442.
