Speaker: Penney M. Gilbert
Dr. Penney M. Gilbert is an Associate Professor at the University of Toronto in the Institute of Biomedical Engineering where she holds the Canada Research Chair in Endogenous Repair.
Gilbert received her PhD from the University of Pennsylvania (2006) and conducted postdoctoral studies at Stanford University (2007 – 2012). Her team engineers and studies three-dimensional models of human skeletal muscle and explores muscle stem cell mechanobiology with the goal of identifying signaling pathways that can be tweaked to boost the function of skeletal muscle stem cells in the body.
