DESCRIPTION:The Arkansas Integrative Metabolic Research Center (AIMRC) will
  host Dr. Megan Rosa-Caldwell\, an Assistant Professor of Exercise Science
  at the University of Arkansas at 12:55 p.m. on Wednesday\, February 19th\
 , in ARKV 0002. Dr. Rosa-Caldwell’s research focuses on investigating th
 e short and long-term effects of musculoskeletal alterations during anorex
 ia nervosa (AN). This includes how skeletal muscle is directly affected by
  AN or how skeletal muscle health may influence other systems such as the 
 brain\, bones\, and more. \n\n \n\nAbstract: Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a hi
 ghly prevalent and difficult-to-treat psychiatric disease. Concurrently wi
 th bodyweight loss\, there is a substantial loss of skeletal muscle mass a
 nd strength. Given muscle mass’s key role in metabolic and overall healt
 h\, these muscle alterations may be a key determinant of short and long-te
 rm health outcomes in this population. In this talk\, Dr. Rosa-Caldwell wi
 ll discuss the current clinical literature on muscle health in those with 
 AN or a prior history of AN. She will also discuss preliminary findings on
  changes to muscle physiology and biology during AN and following weight r
 estoration\, as well as highlight future areas for investigation.\n \n\nBi
 ography: Dr. Rosa-Caldwell is an Assistant Professor of Exercise Science i
 n the Department of Human Health\, Performance\, and Recreation at the Uni
 versity of Arkansas. Her research investigates musculoskeletal alterations
  during anorexia nervosa. Dr. Rosa-Caldwell's team has developed a rodent 
 model of anorexia nervosa that simulates the prolonged duration of anorexi
 a nervosa and using this model\, the team investigates how anorexia-induce
 d muscle loss influences acute and long-term health. Dr. Rosa-Caldwell cur
 rently has over 45 publications in the field of muscle biology and is an a
 ctive member of the American College of Sports Medicine and the American P
 hysiological Society.\n\n \n\nARKV is located at\n\n310 Arkansas Ave. \nFa
 yetteville\, AR 72701\n\n \n\nThis event is supported by NIGMS of the Nati
 onal Institutes of Health under Award Number P20GM139768. The content is s
