Motoneuronal mechanisms underlying age-related muscle weakness
Description: Project Narrative The proposed research is relevant to public health because it will advance the understanding of the physiological mechanisms of weakness in older adults. Weakness is a major risk factor for the development of physical disability in old age. As such, this application is highly relevant to NIH’s mission of extending healthy living and reducing the burdens of physical disability in old age.
