We are currently recruiting young adults (18-30 years old) with and without type 1 diabetes (T1D).
In individuals with T1D, the skeletal muscle plays a large role in controlling blood glucose and whole-body metabolism, however, we have recently found that even in young adults with T1D, changes to the health of skeletal muscle are observed. We are conducting this research study to learn more about muscle health in adults with and without T1D. We will also determine (1) how regular exercise can reverse these alterations in muscle health in T1D, and (2) how a brief period of detraining (no exercise) affects the exercise adaptations.
If you are interested in participating or want to know more about the study, please contact our research team:
