Dr. Nader's research continues to focus on the regulation of ribosome biogenesis and its role in the regulation of muscle growth by employing human, animal and cell models of muscle hypertrophy. Additionally, the lab seeks to decipher biomimicry approaches employed by hibernators to define novel strategies to preserve skeletal muscle mass.
