Objectives:
- To understand the role of dietary protein in the regulation of skeletal muscle protein turnover
- To understand how periods of skeletal muscle disuse affect skeletal muscle protein turnover
- To explore the role of essential amino acids and omega-3 fatty acids in mitigating skeletal muscle loss with disuse

Dr. Chris McGlory is an Assistant Professor at Queen's University, Canada having completed Postdoctoral Fellowships at McMaster University, Canada under the supervision of Dr. Stuart Phillips. Chris specializes in the use of stable isotopic tracers to track skeletal muscle protein turnover during periods of fasting, feeding, training, and immobilization. His work employs a range of methodologies such as deuterium labelling of proteins and magnetic resonance imaging, as well as a variety of molecular biology techniques for measurement of enzyme activity, protein expression, and post-translational modification. Currently, his lab is focused on exploring how omega-3 fatty acid and essential amino acid intake protect against muscle disuse atrophy. Chris has published over 60 scientific papers and has delivered numerous invited national and international presentations at many prestigious scientific meetings.
