Prof. Dr. Takeshi Nikawa is a distinguished researcher at Tokushima University, Japan, with expertise in skeletal muscle physiology, molecular biology, and nutritional interventions. His research explores the mechanisms underlying muscle atrophy, mitochondrial function, and gene regulation during myogenesis, aiming to understand how these processes impact aging, metabolism, and overall health. Nikawa’s work integrates experimental studies with translational approaches to develop strategies for maintaining muscle mass and function, particularly in aging populations or individuals at risk of muscle degeneration. He actively collaborates with international scientists across multiple disciplines, fostering knowledge exchange and advancing global research initiatives. Through his publications and applied studies, Nikawa contributes to both fundamental scientific understanding and practical interventions, supporting the development of therapeutic, nutritional, and lifestyle strategies that enhance quality of life and address key societal challenges related to health and aging.
