About

Andre Bazzone is a leading electrophysiologist whose research centers on the molecular mechanisms of membrane transport proteins. His work has fundamentally advanced the understanding of how secondary active transporters function, particularly through the application of solid-supported membrane (SSM)-based electrophysiology. Bazzone’s major contribution lies in refining and championing this technique as a high-resolution tool for studying transporter kinetics and electrogenic properties, enabling direct, real-time measurement of charge movements that are invisible to traditional methods. His seminal paper, “SSM-Based Electrophysiology for Transporter Research” (2017), has garnered 98 citations, serving as a foundational methodological reference for labs worldwide. By bridging structural biology with functional analysis, Bazzone has provided critical insights into the transport cycles of key proteins, including those involved in neurotransmitter and ion homeostasis. His work is notable for its technical rigor and for establishing SSM-based assays as a standard approach in the field, making complex transporter dynamics accessible to a broader community of researchers and students alike.
