Biography

Matthew Regan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Montreal. His research specializes in the metabolic adaptation of hibernating mammals, with a focus on understanding the mechanisms that allow these animals to survive extreme conditions through periods of dormancy. His ongoing projects include studies using calorespirometry to assess metabolic depression in fishes and research into the translational potential of hibernation-related mechanisms for muscle atrophy resistance. Regan's work is heavily funded by Canadian federal agencies, including the Canadian Space Agency and the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada. He is currently recruiting PhD students for his lab to work on hibernation metabolism and aims to unravel the complexities of metabolic plasticity during hibernation. Regan is also involved in various teaching and supervision duties within his department, working closely with students to foster research capabilities in this vital area of biological sciences.
