The major focus of our work is forms of human epilepsy arising from mutations in voltage-gated sodium and potassium channels. We discovered that KCNQ potassium channels were concentrated in the axon, and identified the first molecular mechanisms for KCNQ channel targeting at the axonal initial segment and nodes of Ranvier.
