On Friday 12 September at 14:00, Anders Salvig Stouge defends his PhD dissertation entitled "Muscle Failure in Severe Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes - Mechanisms, Manifestations, and Functional Implications". 

Anders Salvig Stouge will defend his PhD dissertation on how skeletal muscle function is affected by severe obesity and type 2 diabetes. His research aims to advance our understanding of the manifestations, underlying mechanisms, and functional consequences of muscle complications in indiviudals with type 2 diabetes. In doing so, it sheds light on an understudied and unrecognized complication known as diabetic myopathy. Improving our understanding of this complication may help guide early detection and targeted interventions, ultimately preventing or mitigating age-realted functional decline and promoting healthier ageing in this at-risk population.

The summary is written by the PhD student.

The defence is public and takes place at Aarhus University Hospital, Auditorium J116-113. Please see the press release for more information.
