Another great addition to our March 6 seminar is Maya Bozzo-Rey – MSc (c) in @SergiClotet lab. Her presentation will explore kidney metabolism, epigenetics & sex differences in DKD, with a focus on metabolic responses to high glucose & epigenetic modifications.

Also presenting on March 6 is Meghan Conn – 2nd year MSc (c) in the @SchertzerLab. @MeghanConn01's presentation will describe the metabolic changes that occur during repeated intermittent fasting(IF) & how features of obesity & early T2D affect the metabolic response to IF
