Looking forward to attending the upcoming Tornado Alley Muscle Meeting this week hosted by @KevinMurachPhD @DavisEnglund #ZachHettinger, and #BenjaminMiller. Hopefully no actual tornados 😄

Upcoming Postdoc Position! With Chris Nelson’s lab at U of A, we are looking for a fully supported 2-year postdoc to work on muscle gene editing and detection of gene doping in vivo. If interested, email myself and Chris: [email protected] and [email protected] #myotwitter

Thrilled to get our work in @AJPCellPhys showing the immune cell profiles of adipose tissue and skeletal muscle with cachexia. We used 19-color flow to identify novel macrophage subsets in both AT and SKM. A fun culmination of a lot of my postdoc work pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3818…

My senior author paper published in #JCIInsight: insight.jci.org/articles/vie… Through multiomics integration, we've uncovered ways the #vitaminD receptor may impact skeletal muscle after ACL reconstruction.
