Information

My research considers aging, health, physical activity, physical performance, metabolism and metabolomics, molecular genetics and genomics with current focus on the non-coding RNAs and extracellular signalling vehicles that mediate the gene-lifestyle interactions by functioning as communication shuttles between different bodily systems. In my research, I utilize human intervention and cohort studies in combination with use of experimental models.
