Forskningsbeskrivning

  • In my research I work on improving our knowledge of the molecular effects of physical exercise on the whole body, and how different tissues and systems coordinate to overcome and adapt to a performance challenge. High levels of physical performance require a highly coordinated response not only of skeletal muscle but other organs and tissues like adipose or the liver. Specifically, I am currently focusing on investigating the interactions of the immune system and acute and long-term exercise and training. A large factor in positive progression of performance in exercise training is recovery and regeneration which is facilitated by the immune system. For it to properly function, the immune system requires large amounts of energy, a resource short in supply and therefore highly controlled in the context of extreme and high-level physical performance.
