In the MAIN Lab @ UBC, led by Dr. James McKendry, we are pushing the boundaries of muscle biology. Our collaborative research integrates cutting-edge techniques—including skeletal muscle biopsies, stable isotope tracers, tissue culture, mitochondrial respiration, and multi-omics approaches—to investigate how nutrition, exercise, aging, and disease affect skeletal muscle. We aim to reveal novel mechanisms and […]
