Davis Englund named a Clinical and Translational Science TL1 predoctoral trainee

Davis Englund, a rehabilitation sciences PhD student, was recently named as a Clinical and Translational Science Program TL1 Predoctoral trainee and will be supported by UK’s CTSA award from the National Institutes of Health. Davis’ project entitled, “Determining the fiber type-specific requirements for satellite cells during skeletal muscle hypertrophy,” is designed to gain an in-depth understanding of the role of muscle stem cells (satellite cells) during muscle hypertrophy. As a TL1 Scholar, Davis will receive a stipend, tuition support, and travel funds to attend the annual Association for Clinical and Translational Science meeting. Davis is mentored by Dr. Charlotte Peterson. Join us in congratulating him on this award!
