PhD Student – Ion Channels in Dravet Syndrome
Location: Bratislava, Slovakia | Contract: 3 years, fixed-term | Start: ASAP
We are seeking a motivated PhD candidate to study neuronal-cardiac crosstalk in Dravet syndrome.
What you will do:
Dravet syndrome (DS), caused mainly by SCN1A mutations, carries a high risk of SUDEP, with emerging evidence suggesting cardiac involvement in addition to seizures. This PhD project will use patient-derived iPSCs to investigate neuronal and cardiac phenotypes, aiming to link SCN1A dysfunction to altered excitability and SUDEP risk. The work will combine patch-clamp, MEA, confocal imaging, and molecular biology approaches.
