The MHRC is excited to invite you to the International Trainee Seminar Series on Friday, November 28th at 10:00am Eastern time! The topic of this seminar will be on Muscle Regeneration. Use the link here to register: yorku.zoom.us/meeting/regist…

Pleased to share our new paper published in the Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle "The Monocrotaline Model of Hypertension Leads to Cachexia in Male but Not Female Mice" @TrentUniversity doi.org/10.1002/jcsm.7…

She’s here! Thank you to NSERC RTI for our new flow cytometer!

These suggest important roles for i6A/iPR in muscle repair and aging. We’re now actively looking at the enzyme responsible for this modification, tRNA isopentenyltransferase 1 or TRIT1.

In vitro analysis of exogenous iPR and another cytokinin, kinetin, show the riboside forms inhibit myoblast proliferation and differentiation.

Pleased to share our publication “Cytokinins Are Age- and Injury- Responsive Molecules That Regulate Skeletal Myogenesis” mdpi.com/1422-0067/26/2…

We are excited to announce that we are seeking two colleagues: an Assistant Professor and an Associate Professor in the area of Aging, Senescence, and Tissue Regeneration. Learn more through the following links: jobs.utoronto.ca/job/Toronto-As… jobs.utoronto.ca/job/Toronto-As…

Moth Night 2025: Mothing but the Best - a great article on moth night, hosted by friend and colleague Prof Sarah Jamieson whose limited term appointment was not renewed by Trent due to “budget cuts”. The article elaborates on that as well trentarthur.ca/news/moth-nigh…

Great series! And kudos to my friend and colleague Prof Elizabeth Russell for the stamina to walk and talk up the Bata library steps! 😮‍💨
