Free Webinar- Understanding Pain: Human Mendelian Pain Disorders (Part 1 of 2)

 
  December 14, 2015  
     
 
Abcam Events, Online Event
01/27/2016


Families with inherited pain disorders caused by a mutation in a single gene are rare. Nevertheless, genetic analyses of such families have revealed important insights into the pain system.

This webinar will review:

  • The methods used to identify genes underlying human monogenic pain  disorders
  • The diverse phenotypes associated with mutations in the Nav1.7 voltage gated sodium channel
  • Recent developments in our understanding of Congenital Insensitivity to Pain

 

 
 
Organized by: Abcam
Invited Speakers:

Dr James Cox

Dr James Cox is currently an MRC-funded Career Development Fellow and Proleptic Senior Lecturer working in the Molecular Nociception Group at University College London.

As a post-doctoral researcher working with Professor Geoff Woods and Professor John Wood, he focused on SCN9A-associated Congenital Insensitivity to Pain and TRPA1-associated Familial Episodic Pain Syndrome, in addition to other human neurodevelopmental disorders.
