Welcome to the Laboratory of Molecular Physiology!
The Molecular Physiology Lab investigates the molecular mechanisms associated with contractile signal transduction in skeletal and smooth muscle and how these signals are regulated with exercise and age. The laboratory utilizes a variety of different hypertrophy and disuse models as well as employing molecular, morphological, and physiological tools to address various research questions.
