Research Opportunities in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics

Undergraduate (junior/senior standing) research opportunities in Physiology and Biophysics

Projects examining regulation of salt transport in the kidney and other organs with epithelial sodium channel mediated sodium reabsorption.  Projects range from cellular studies examining ion channel function in single cells to whole animal studies examining renal function in rats to human studies examining markers of channel activation in biological fluids. Interested students who have completed the core science prerequisite courses through organic chemistry, and ideally, additional upper division courses should contact Dr. M. Awayda in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics at awayda@buffalo.edu.
