Professor Annette Dolphin FMedSci FRS

Annette Dolphin is internationally recognised as one the world leaders in the field of neuronal voltage-gated calcium channels. She is distinguished for her work on the regulation of calcium channel trafficking and function, and the modulation of that function by activation of G-protein coupled receptors. Her work on the control of calcium channel trafficking by auxiliary calcium channel subunits has been particularly influential. She has brilliantly elucidated the topology and processing of this family of proteins.
