Hi! My name is Matthew Bomkamp and I am a master's student at the University of Florida in Applied Physiology and Kinesiology. I work in a muscle biochemistry lab that researches the effect of mechanical ventilation on the rapid atrophy of the diaphragm muscle. This is a unique problem as many patients who receive life-saving support from ventilators are unable to be properly weaned due to the rapid onset of diaphragm weakness while in ICUs.
