Julien GONDIN

Julien Gondin (phD) is a CNRS researcher at Institut NeuroMyoGène (Lyon) where he leads the research group “electrostimulation and cachexia” in the Chazaud Team (www.musclestem.com). He has a recognized experience in the evaluation of skeletal muscle function in both human and animals. Over the last 15 years, his research interests focused on the acute and chronic effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) thanks to multidisciplinary methodologies (force measurements, proteomics, MRI...). His research group now focuses on the effectiveness of carefully-controlled NMES training protocols for minimizing muscle dysfunctions in two pathologies (i.e., cancer and critical illness myopathy).
