That's interesting! No answer though. I am sure there are many..

Eduardo E Valdez-Morales

That is not easy to answer, why you ask for????

Daniel V Madison

42. I believe the answer is 42.

Xuexin Zhang 张学新

Daniel, I believed that the number exactly is 42, not 43.

James P Dilger

Back of the envelop calculation. A PubMed search for "patch clamp" over the past 5 years reveals about 10k hits. If the average lab produces 1 paper per year, there may be about 2k labs that patch. I'm guessing that the average lab might have 3 people who can patch, so that gives us 6k active patchers. Hmmm, a pretty exclusive club!

Marc Chevalier

You may check @ http://ionchannels.org/labs.php and see the active labs to have an overview of people using patch-clamp in their publications. It will just reflect how many labs are using this method, not the number of patch-clampers though

Abbas Salihi

Nice question.. I think alot.....

Emily Fletcher

Did anyone ever find out?
