DESCRIPTION:*Part of the Foster Talk series\, organised by the Department 
 of Physiology\, Development & Neuroscience* \n\nMany cardiovascular diseas
 es are also diseases of the autonomic nervous system.  This talk will pres
 ent recent cellular and molecular findings highlighting the role of cyclic
  nucleotides in abnormal neurotransmission\, and use of a gene transfer st
 rategy to rescue neuronal phenotypes.\n\n\n===\n\nProfessor David Paterson
  completed his doctoral studies in physiological sciences at Oxford in the
  eighties having been a graduate of the University of Otago (NZ)\, and the
  University of Western Australia. He received his Doctor of Science (D.Sc)
  degree from Western Australia in 2005 and was made a Fellow of the Instit
 ute of Biology in 2003.  Following an MRC post doc in Oxford and a BHF lec
 tureship he was appointed to a University Lecturership in 1994 and made a 
 Fellow of Merton College\, Oxford.  He is currently Professor of Physiolog
 y and Associate Head of the Division of Medical Sciences\, Oxford.  He cha
 irs the Division's Education Committee\, is a member of the executive comm
 ittee of the BHF Centre of Research Excellence at Oxford\, and is a member
  of a National Research Excellence (REF 2014) panel.  He is currently Edit
 or-in-Chief of The Journal of Physiology.\n\n\n*This event is open to ever
 yone\, including non-Department members. Free snacks and drinks will be pr
 ovided after the event.*
