About

Gustavo Duque is a leading researcher in geriatric medicine, with a primary focus on sarcopenia, osteoporosis, and the biology of ageing. His work has significantly advanced the understanding of muscle and bone deterioration in older adults, particularly through the exploration of assistive technologies and interventions to combat age-related muscle loss. Duque’s research on the pathophysiology of sarcopenia has helped bridge the gap between basic science and clinical practice, offering new insights into how cellular mechanisms, such as mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation, contribute to frailty. Among his notable contributions, his 2018 paper on assistive technologies to overcome sarcopenia in ageing has garnered 38 citations, highlighting its relevance in developing practical solutions for maintaining mobility and independence in the elderly. Duque’s impact extends beyond citations; he has been instrumental in shaping international guidelines for sarcopenia diagnosis and management, and his work is frequently referenced by clinicians and researchers seeking to improve quality of life in ageing populations. His dedication to translating research into real-world applications makes him a pivotal figure in gerontology.
