Elucidating the Protective Effect of Exercise in Mouse Model of Hemorrhagic Shock + Trauma

Date

September 13, 2022 - 10:00am to 11:30am

Event Description

Presenter: Jennifer Darby, MD (mentor: Timothy R. Billiar, MD)

Dr. Darby's group has shown that exercise training mitigates against organ damage in a mouse model of traumatic hemorrhage. They are employing RNA sequencing and metabolomic strategies to attempt to develop a mechanistic explanation for the protect role of exercise training in organ response to shock. This presentation will discuss ongoing work on this project, as well as on a second project using metabolomic to study sex-specific differences in a similar mouse model of trauma.
