Produktinformationen zu „Sensory Transduction “

Klappentext zu „Sensory Transduction “
How are sights, sounds and smells converted into electrical signals in a form that can be interpreted by the nervous system? This process called sensory transduction began to be understood only recently as a result of the development of the techniques of patch-clamp recording and gene cloning. Beginning with fundamental properties of ion channels and G-protein coupled signal cascades, Sensory Transduction provides a comprehensive survey of this new knowledge that, taken as a whole, represents one of the greatest achievements of modern biology and neuroscience: the unravelling of the mechanism of sensation.

Autoren-Porträt von Gordon L. Fain
Gordon L. Fain is Professor of Physiological Science, Ophthalmology, and Neuroscience at the University of California, Los Angeles. He received a Ph.D. in Biophysics from The Johns Hopkins University in 1973. His research, which has been supported by a Guggenheim Fellowship and a National Institutes of Health MERIT Award, is focused on the mechanism of visual transduction, specifically the role of Ca2+ in modulating the transduction cascade duringlight and dark adaptation, and the part played by constitutive activation in photoreceptor degeneration. Dr. Fain has been a visiting scholar at St. John's College (University of Cambridge, United Kingdom) and the Rockefeller Foundation Study Center (Bellagio, Italy). In addition to Sensory Transduction, he has
authored Molecular and Cellular Physiology of Neurons (1999).
