Head: Arnaud Ferry
Our group is focused on muscle physiology in normal, muscular exercised, aged and pathologic conditions:
. Impact of neuromuscular disease on muscle function and motor performance (i.e., characterization of rodent models)
. Evaluation of therapies on muscle function. Preclinical studies in rodent models of neuromuscular diseases with the collaboration of the muscle evaluation PTF at UMS28 (S. Morosan and M. Lemaitre)
. Integrative physiology of healthy skeletal muscle
. Beneficial effects of different types of chronic exercise in neuromuscular diseases mouse models
