Led by Feng Yue · Animal Sciences
What we study
The Yue Lab studies how stem cells and metabolism affect muscle and fat tissue development, focusing on diseases like muscular dystrophy and obesity. They use genetic mice, advanced imaging, and stem cell technologies to uncover mechanisms for improving health.
