Traustadóttir Lab

We study redox biology, aging, and exercise!

Research focus

The research goals in the Traustadóttir Lab are to determine:

• The mechanisms of diminished resistance to oxidative stress with aging and plasticity of redox signaling pathways.
• The efficacy of interventions such as exercise and phytonutrients in preventing or attenuating these age-related changes in redox signaling.
• The effects of different exercise protocols (modes, intensity, volume) on redox signaling and resistance to oxidative stress.
