Projects

Metabolic rewiring of muscle glucose metabolism
Project

MeRWi (Metabolic ReWiring of muscle cell glucose metabolism)

We investigate whether muscle cells behave in a cancer cell-like manner, producing vital compounds in the glycolytic pathways and what role this phenomenon plays in muscle size regulation and secretion of small molecule metabolites.

Project

TraDeRe (Resistance TRAining, DEtraining, and REtraining)

The TraDeRe2 project investigates intra- and inter-individual variation in resistance training responses. The aim is to identify the determinants of individual variation in resistance training, detraining and retraining.
