Our goal is to uncover mechanisms of skeletal muscle adaptation in neuromuscular disorders to design therapies that can block fibrosis and enhance regeneration.

It was fun to have our lab featured in a recent piece by @ABC10 on the future of cultivated meat - along with colleagues at @UCDavis_CMC. giphy.com/gifs/AbEHtDalY…

@Taryn_Loomis has shown that muscle stem cells and fibroblasts/FAPs in muscle from children with cerebral palsy promote fibrosis and impair regeneration while responding to the stiffness of contracture. @UCDavisBMEGG @kentleach5 @ShrinersNorCA doi.org/10.1111/dmcn.1…
Our first MyoMatrix students received their PhD hoods! I am Incredibly proud of the scientist you have each become, how you all supported each other through the tribulation of PhD life, and happy we could have some fun along the way! @sarah_brash25 , @Taryn_Loomis , @rpwohlgemuth
More big news for the lab this week. @rpwohlgemuth gave an amazing exit seminar. Soon to be Dr. Wohlgemuth showed why he is THE expert in collagen architecture in muscle. You should follow him now with more exciting work to come. Time for a celebration! @MCIPUCD
