Detection of aging mechanisms of nephron degeneration using nanoscale pathology
Role Description: The goal of this project is to test, in collaboration with the MIT Media Lab, the use of Expansion Microscopy for the early detection of aging-associated changes in the nephron microenvironment in relation to the adoption of a secretory senescent phenotype in epithelial cells of the proximal tubule
Role: Principal Investigator

Characterization and therapeutic potential of fibroadipogenic progenitors
Role Description: The main goal was to study the interactions between adipocyte progenitors and inflammatory innate immune cells in the context of metabolic syndrome. Specifically, the aim to study how secretion of TGF? by anti-inflammatory macrophages could regulate adipose depot growth by stimulating the proliferation of progenitor cells, supporting hyperplasia over hypertrophy, and therefore exerting a beneficial effect. The results were published in the journals Nature Medicine and Stem Cells.
Role: Co-Investigator (Co-author)

Effect of Imatinib mesylate (Gleevec®) on sarcopenia-associated fibrofatty muscle degeneration
Role Description: The goal of the study was to explore the effect of Gleevec treatment on aging-associated ectopic intramuscular connective tissue accumulation in mice. The results were published in the journal Stem Cell Research.
Role: Principal Investigator
