Welcome to the Dierickx Lab for Circadian Regulation of Cardiometabolism
Circadian rhythms coordinate many different aspects of behavior and physiology (e.g., fasting/feeding cycles, body temperature and metabolism). The Dierickx lab is interested in the molecular mechanisms of the circadian clock driving rhythmic metabolic processes in the heart. We try to understand how deregulated clocks are leading to cardiovascular defects and are trying to target the circadian clock in order to treat and prevent heart diseases.

Summer lab BBQ
On Friday we had our half time lab BBQ. The brief rain showers could not stop us from having fun. All people brought authentic food to make our BBQ a real success. Very grateful to be working with such an inspiring and talented group of scientists. Looking forward to the second half of the year!
