Research summary
AI-generated

Kyoungrae Kim studies how skeletal muscle is affected by vascular and kidney disease, particularly peripheral artery disease (poor blood flow to the limbs) and chronic kidney disease, including complications from hemodialysis access surgery. The work combines mouse models, muscle tissue analysis (including single-cell/nuclei genetic profiling), and studies of mitochondrial function (the energy-producing parts of cells) to understand why muscles weaken in these conditions and to test potential treatments. This research could suit students interested in translational physiology connecting vascular disease, kidney disease, and muscle biology.
