Veronica A. Campanucci, PhD

University of Saskatchewan

I am a neuroscientist with expertise in electrophysiology, dedicated to exploring the functional dynamics of the nervous system. My research journey began at McMaster University, where I earned my PhD, followed by postdoctoral fellowships at McGill University and The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids). Currently, I serve as an Associate Professor at the University of Saskatchewan.
My research team, in collaboration with national and international partners, investigates how cystic fibrosis (CF) alters the properties of membrane proteins—particularly ion channels—that are essential for neural function. These CF-related changes may affect ion channel abundance at the plasma membrane, modify their biophysical characteristics, or disrupt their activity levels. Such alterations can significantly influence neural signaling and contribute to disease-related dysfunctions in the nervous system.
By identifying these pathological mechanisms, our work aims to uncover novel therapeutic targets to improve the treatment and management of neurological complications associated with CF.
