Chris completed a BS in Biology at Baylor University, PhD in biomedical sciences at the University of Texas Medical Branch and postdoctoral training in muscle physiology at the University of Kentucky. His research is funded by several grants through the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and he has received several awards for his research.
