Welcome to the Musselman Lab!

Our lab is interested in the question: “what’s so bad about high-calorie diets?” Overeating leads to reduced lifespan and other negative consequences across taxa, whereas caloric restriction can extend the lifespan and healthspan. But why? There seems to be an optimal level of nutrition and nutrients; outside of this range, pathophysiology occurs. We use genetic, biochemical, and physiological approaches to better understand the roles of genes, organs, and the diet in the relationship between the diet and health.
