Episode 28 - Dr. Vandre Casagrande Figuieredo - Ribosome biogenesis and it's role in muscle hypertrophy, Cold water immersion and hypertrophy

This week David has the pleasure of being joined by Dr. Vandre Casagrande Figuieredo, a post - doctoral researcher at the University of Kentucky, Lexington.

 

Dr. Figuieredo's main interests is in the role of ribosome biogenesis in muscle hypertrophy regulation. Vandre previously studied at the prestigious Karolinska institute, Sweden.

 

In this episode David and Vandre discuss:

 

Q1. What are ribosomes? 

 

Q2. What is ribosome biogenesis and what role does it play in muscle hypertrophy?

 

 

Q3. From a practical perspective, is there anything we can do / should not do to maximise ribosome biogenesis following resistance training.
