Full Title of Talk:
Calling out? Fusing in? Supporting Capillarization? Satellite Cells and Their Role(s) In Muscle Hypertrophy

About the Speakers:
Dr. Christopher Fry is a tenured Associate Professor in the Department of Athletic Training and Clinical Nutrition at the University of Kentucky. Chris completed a B.S. in Biology at Baylor University (2006), Ph.D. in biomedical sciences at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB, 2011) and postdoctoral training in muscle physiology at the University of Kentucky (2014). He established his research lab at UTMB in 2014. In 2019 Chris relocated his lab to the Center for Muscle Biology in the College of Health Sciences at the University of Kentucky. Chris’s research focuses on elucidating the mechanisms that regulate skeletal muscle plasticity to establish interventions to maintain skeletal muscle strength and mass during conditions of muscle wasting. Much of his current work involves studying the contribution of different progenitor cells to muscle adaptation, and his current work explores muscle quality and stem cells in the recovery of muscle mass and function following injury. Dr. Fry's lab utilizes several different experimental models, including transgenic rodent models, primary cell culture, as well as clinical subject research.  He has competed as an amateur bodybuilder and enjoys working out, traveling, cooking and spending time with his wife and son

Dr. Kevin Murach is a senior post-doctoral scholar in the Department of Physical Therapy and Center for Muscle Biology at the University of Kentucky. Kevin completed an undergraduate degree in Exercise Science from UNC-Chapel Hill in 2009, a Master’s Degree in Exercise Physiology from James Madison University in 2011, and a Ph.D. in Human Bioenergetics from Ball State University in 2015. Kevin’s research focuses on the cellular and molecular factors that contribute to skeletal muscle plasticity, specifically in the context of mass regulation with exercise and aging. Much of his current work centers around the contributions of satellite cells and myonuclei to skeletal muscle growth using innovative murine genetic and exercise training models, and he has recently begun studying skeletal muscle epigenetics. Kevin enjoys exercising, collecting rare bourbon, and spending time with his wife (a brave healthcare provider).
