Research Interests

My research objective is to understand molecular and cellular regulation of skeletal muscle physiology and health across the life span.  

  • Sarcopenia (the age related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function)
  • Skeletal muscle atrophy
  • Inactivity-induced oxidative stress 
  • Exercise-induced muscle damage
  • Skeletal muscle density and its relation to health 

Current Research Project

  • Examining the relationship between skeletal muscle strength, power and intramuscular fat in healthy adults
