Research summary
AI-generated

Gilian Gunsch studies how the nervous system interacts with metabolic and musculoskeletal tissues, particularly examining nerves and immune cells in adipose (fat) tissue, diabetic nerve damage, and the structure of intervertebral disc and cartilage tissue. This work spans animal models (mice, dogs, cattle) and human tissue samples to understand aging, obesity-related nerve changes, and spine-related tissue degeneration.
