Biography
My works focus on neuromuscular plasticity, particularly muscle fatigue. We use methods including surface EMG, transcutaneous electrical stimulation and muscle biopsies in human and intact single fibres from mouse to get insight into the mechanisms underlying muscle weakness in healthy and clinical population.
Research Interest
sport medicine, neuromuscular studies.
