Cultural Mission

He is interested in developing an applied biology approach, combining the perspectives of general and human biology, molecular and cellular biology, general and molecular genetics, and biotechnology, with emphasis on functional genomics and cellular response to physical activity in relation to growth, development, aging, and health.

Main lines of research

Genomics and epigenomics of human movement and sport. Cellular and molecular mechanisms of control, response and adaptation to movement and exercise and their involvement in physiological, pathological and aging-related processes. Redox homeostasis and muscle adaptation. Involvement of alternative splicing in pathologies of the neuromotor system. Systemic and tissue-specific molecular response to physiological stress induced by changes in redox homeostasis.
