Research work involves investigations on the molecular mechanisms in neuronal calcium signaling, synaptc plasticity, learning and memory, neurodegeneration, etc. Biochemical, molecular biological, cell biological and rodent in vivo systems are used. Techniques such as enzyme kinetics, western blotting, pull downs, immunoprecipitations, heterologous expression, gene expression manipulations, immunostaining, live imaging, behavioral analysis, etc are used.
