Automated Electrophysiology Makes the Pace for Cardiac Ion Channel Safety Screening
The field of automated patch-clamp electrophysiology has emerged from the tension between the pharmaceutical industry’s need for high-throughput compound screening versus its need to be conservative due to regulatory requirements. On the one hand, hERG channel screening was increasingly requested fo...
