Dr. Maxim V. Nikolaev studies the basics of synaptic transmission and plasticity. Of particular interest are ion channels that provide synaptic communication between neurons. Dr. Nikolaev uses modern electrophysiological, molecular, optical and pharmacological approaches to study the structures, functions and regulation of ion channels. A new area of research is the development of photosensitive modulators […]

I investigate the mechanisms of impairment of long-term potentiation in rat CA3-CA1 hippocampal synapses after status epilepticus by field potential recordings. I study also morphological changes after seizures. and the effects of antiepileptic drugs.
