The main area of research: the development of electrophysiological and optogenetic approaches to restore the functioning of the retina based on the expression of selective chimeric photosensitive proteins in model mammalian cells (testing on HEK 293T cell lines (Human Embryonic Kidney 293 T)). Methods: cell culture, transfection, optical and fluorescent microscopy, patch-clamp technique. The second […]
