[CBB researcher story] January 8, 2013 "The Ability to be Heard Above the Crowd"

Research Interests:

The primary focus of the Skeletal Muscle Biology and Cell Death Laboratory is to study cell death processes (i.e., apoptosis and autophagy) in skeletal muscle. In addition, a major theme is the influence of mitochondrial signaling and dynamics on skeletal muscle development, function, regeneration, and health.
