    My Scopus ID is 7005554863.
    My NIH COMMONS name is TSHANNON.

    Research Areas:
    Ionic channels, voltage gated ionic channels, fluorescence signal detection and electrophysiology, particularly as they relate to excitation-contraction coupling in striated muscle. Shannon uses multiple biochemical, biophysical and molecular approaches to study the control of the concentration of calcium in the storage organelle (the sarcoplasmic reticulum) of normal and abnormal cells of the heart.

    PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
