Now Recruiting

Muscle Mitochondrial Research Laboratory 

Understanding how mitochondrial networks, cristae architecture, and organelle contact sites shape muscle health  from fiber type specification to aging and metabolic disease.

For IMARIS_ROI2_exported_data-1_2023-06-14T22-59-09.042.tif

Our Research

Our lab is dedicated to advancing the understanding of muscle biology and physiology, with a focus on intracellular spatial organization and mitochondrial functionality. We aim to unravel the complexities of muscle function and address age-related muscle disorders and metabolic diseases. Our multidisciplinary approach includes genetic manipulation, molecular biology, 3D imaging, and advanced metabolic imaging methods to drive targeted therapy development.
