Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRemigijus Lape is a Principal Scientist with 15 years of experience specializing in ion-channel biophysics and neural signalling, currently leading research at Metrion Biosciences. He combines hands-on electrophysiology, single-channel and macroscopic recordings with kinetic and quantitative modelling to dissect how receptor structure, mutations, and ligands modulate channel function. His career spans academia and industry, including senior roles at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology and a long research fellowship at UCL, reflecting deep expertise across neuroscience and pharmacology. Trained with a PhD in Biophysics from SISSA, he brings rigorous quantitative training to drug-discovery contexts and mechanistic studies. Less obvious is his track record of translating detailed biophysical insight into applied assay development for ion-channel screening, bridging fundamental science with practical translational impact.
