dc.description.abstract | Alan North represents a new generation of British neuropharmacologists who have exploited the powerful tools of molecular biology to study drug actions. He trained in the University of Aberdeen under Professor Hans Kosterlitz, who in the 1970’s with John Hughes discovered the enkephalins, endogenous morphine-like chemicals. North was among the first to study enkephalins at a cellular level using microelectrode recording and other pharmacological techniques. He worked in the USA (Chicago, Boston, Oregon) and also as senior scientist in the Geneva laboratory of Glaxo/Wellcome (now GSK). He currently uses electrophysiological and molecular biological approaches to dissect the detailed structure and function of purinergic receptors – thus continuing the field pioneered by Burnstock. | en_US |
dc.description.sponsorship | Supported by a Wellcome Trust Public Engagement grant (2006-2008) in the History of Medicine to Professor Tilli Tansey (QMUL) and Professor Leslie Iversen (Oxford), this project recorded interviews with 12 prominent neuroscientists, between 2006 and 2008. | en_US |
