Hunter Wallace, Ph.D.

Hunter is a scientist specializing in muscle physiology and mechanics. During his PhD studies, he integrated in vivo, ex vivo, and in silico studies to elucidate the mechanisms of diaphragm dysfunction using a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. His postdoctoral research concentrated on the development of novel 2D and 3D in vitro models of skeletal muscle to investigate structure-function relationships in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. His extensive experience in muscular dystrophies led him to miRecule, where he assists in developing and characterizing innovative therapeutics for muscular dystrophy.
