Momentum in Muscle Research
Congratulations to CTMR Team Core D for their JGP May cover showing “A detailed computational model of striated muscle elucidates how mutations and drugs may alter twitch timing. The spatially explicit model simulates myosin motors connected within a compliant, contractile lattice, complete with thin filament regulation and varying mutation penetrance. The model yields data used…
Towards a More Perfect Union: Multi-Scale Models of Muscle and Their Experimental Validation thematic meeting, which was held in Canterbury, England on July 17-20, 2023. CTMR invited speakers included: Several CTMR graduate students and postdocs presented posters as well.
Dr. Nagana Gowda, CTMR Investigator and Research Associate Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology & Pain Medicine, has been awarded an NIH Research Project Grant (R01) thanks in part to CTMR Pilot Grant support. Dr. Gowda’s awarded project is entitled “Quantitative Analysis of Labile Metabolites in Biological Samples” and focuses on addressing the current lack…
