Difference between Action potential and List of biophysicists

Action potential vs. List of biophysicists

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise. This is a list of persons known for their research in biophysics.

Similarities between Action potential and List of biophysicists

Action potential and List of biophysicists have 14 things in common (in Unionpedia): Alan Lloyd Hodgkin, Andrew Huxley, Bernard Katz, Bert Sakmann, Cryogenic electron microscopy, Erwin Neher, Hermann von Helmholtz, Insulin, Ion, Luigi Galvani, Patch clamp, Synapse, Tropomyosin, X-ray crystallography.

Alan Lloyd Hodgkin

Sir Alan Lloyd Hodgkin (5 February 1914 – 20 December 1998) was an English physiologist and biophysicist, who shared the 1963 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Andrew Huxley and John Eccles.

Insulin

Insulin (from Latin insula, island) is a peptide hormone produced by beta cells of the pancreatic islets; it is considered to be the main anabolic hormone of the body.

Patch clamp

The patch clamp technique is a laboratory technique in electrophysiology used to study ionic currents in individual isolated living cells, tissue sections, or patches of cell membrane.

Synapse

In the nervous system, a synapse is a structure that permits a neuron (or nerve cell) to pass an electrical or chemical signal to another neuron or to the target efferent cell.

X-ray crystallography

X-ray crystallography is a technique used for determining the atomic and molecular structure of a crystal, in which the crystalline atoms cause a beam of incident X-rays to diffract into many specific directions.
