I’m a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Wisconsin–Madison studying how aging, physical inactivity, and metabolic diseases such as diabetes affect muscle function and fatigue. My research combines advanced physiological, imaging, and biochemical techniques to better understand why people lose muscle performance and mobility across the lifespan.
Talk can also be offered in Italian.
