However, its applications in drug discovery extend far beyond safety assessments. By leveraging techniques such as patch-clamp technology and microelectrode arrays (MEA), researchers can gain detailed insights into ion channel behavior and neural network dynamics. These methodologies enable the identification of novel drug targets and the development of therapies for neurological disorders, psychiatric conditions, and cancer. Advancements in miniaturization and automation have enhanced the throughput and accessibility of electrophysiological techniques, positioning them as valuable tools in early-stage drug discovery and lead optimization. Integrating electrophysiology with high-throughput screening, organ-on-a-chip models, and machine learning can accelerate the development of effective therapies across a range of diseases.", "keywords": ["Electrophysiology", "Drug Discovery", "Ion Channels", "Patch-Clamp Technology", "Microelectrode Arrays", "Safety Pharmacology", "Neural Networks", "Pharmacology"], "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://www.sailife.com/wp-content/uploads/electrophysiology-drug-discovery.jpg", "width": 1200, "height": 630 } }
